Unusual Left Atrial Mass: Diagnostic and Surgical Insights From a Patient With a Hemangioma.
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
backgroundCardiac tumors are rare, with most being benign. Vascular cardiac tumors, such as hemangiomas, account for 1% to 2% of all cardiac tumors. CASE SUMMARY: We present a case of a 53-year-old woman who presented with palpitations and shortness of breath. Echocardiography revealed a left atrial mass, which was thought to be most likely a myxoma. After surgical resection, histopathology revealed the mass to be a cardiac hemangioma. DISCUSSION: Cardiac hemangiomas are uncommon. The first case was reported by Hochberg and Robinson in 1950. These tumors are often asymptomatic and can be mistaken for myxomas. Echocardiography is the imaging modality of choice for diagnosis, and surgical resection is the only definitive treatment. TAKE-HOME MESSAGES: Cardiac hemangiomas are extremely rare, which require a high degree of suspicion for diagnosis. Echocardiography is the best imaging modality, and surgical resection is the only definitive treatment.
