Multimodality Imaging of Right Atrial Lipoma.
Article in JACC. Case reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
backgroundCardiac lipomas are rare primary tumors of the heart, especially when they originate from the right atrium. They may be asymptomatic or may manifest with various nonspecific symptoms. CASE SUMMARY: Here we report a case of a giant lipoma of the right atrium in a 61-year-old woman who presented with obstructive symptoms. The tumor was diagnosed using multimodality imaging and was surgically excised. DISCUSSION: Cardiac lipomas are relatively rare benign primary cardiac tumors with an autopsy incidence of 0.17 to 0.19%. They have no sex predilection and may have a bimodal presentation. They can be found in any intracardiac chamber but are most commonly found in the right atrium or left ventricle. The usual approach to diagnosis requires multimodality imaging, and surgical excision is the commonly preferred modality for definitive treatment. TAKE-HOME MESSAGES: Cardiac lipomas are now increasingly recognized in the differential diagnosis of benign cardiac tumors. They have a variable presentation, and surgical excision is treatment of choice.
