1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Primary cardiac tumors in the fetal and neonatal populations are rare. In neonates, these tumors may present with a range of clinical manifestations, from asymptomatic cases to severe arrhythmias, valvular obstruction, and cardiac dysfunction. This report describes a case of fatal malignant arrhythmia caused by a cardiac tumor in an 8-day-old neonate. The electrocardiogram at birth revealed multiple abnormalities, including ST-T segment alterations, intraventricular conduction block, and bundle branch block. By the sixth postnatal day, the patient developed rapid, polymorphic malignant ventricular arrhythmias. Despite aggressive treatment, the neonate ultimately suffered sudden cardiac death. This case underscores the potentially fatal risk of arrhythmias associated with cardiac tumors.
