Thrombosis of a Teratoma: An Unusual Complication of a Usually Benign Tumor.
Article in JACC. Case reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundTeratomas manifest as anterior mediastinal masses in young adults with excellent prognosis after surgical resection. However, given their mediastinal location, these masses can cause life-threatening complications and require challenging surgical resections. CASE SUMMARY: A 22-year-old man was referred for persistent dyspnea with a mediastinal mass. A venous clot in transit resulted in a right atrial mass and bilateral pulmonary emboli, which prevented initial surgical intervention. The use of novel percutaneous techniques reduced his surgical risk and allowed for safe resection of the mass. DISCUSSION: Pulmonary emboli increase perioperative mortality, but there are no definitive guidelines for their management. This case highlights the use of a multidisciplinary team and novel percutaneous therapies for perioperative pulmonary emboli and right atrial mass management. TAKE-HOME MESSAGES: This case demonstrates the use of percutaneous techniques for perioperative management of a right atrial mass and pulmonary emboli. Percutaneous options should be considered in the setting of an initially prohibitive surgical risk.
