Hydatid Cyst Located in the Right Atrium and Bilateral Pulmonary Arteries.
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
backgroundHydatidosis is a parasitic infection caused by Echinococcus granulosus. Hydatidosis has been reported in the lungs, brain, musculoskeletal system, and heart. Cystic hydatid cases observed in the pulmonary artery are quite rarely seen, and cystic hydatid is considered one of the rare causes of nonthrombotic pulmonary embolism. CASE SUMMARY: A 53-year-old female patient with shortness of breath and coughing was examined and found to have a cystic structure measuring 4.1 × 4.9 mm with thrombus on the right atrium. Pulmonary computed tomography angiography revealed a 52 × 55 × 33-mm multiseptate structure containing cystic vesicles within the right atrium and bilateral intrapulmonary cystic lesions measuring 2 to 3 cm. The patient, whose hemodynamics were compromised, underwent emergency surgery, and the pathology result was consistent with hydatid cyst. DISCUSSION: Cardiac hydatid cysts can be fatal, but due to rare occurrence, there are no defined treatment algorithms. Each case must be evaluated individually using a multidisciplinary approach. TAKE-HOME MESSAGES: Hydatid cysts are rare, but cardiac involvement is also possible. If cardiac involvement is on the right side of the heart, it is beneficial to check the pulmonary arteries as well.
