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

Cardiac hemangioma (CH) is a rare benign cardiac tumor whose clinical manifestations-including arrhythmias, heart failure, and pericardial effusion-vary by anatomical location. Sarcoidosis is a multisystem disorder of unknown etiology characterized by non-caseating granulomas, commonly involving the lungs, eyes, and skin, with cardiac involvement being relatively uncommon. To date, no cases of concurrent cardiac hemangioma and cardiac sarcoidosis have been reported worldwide. We herein describe a patient with established sarcoidosis who, during follow-up, exhibited progressive enlargement of a cardiac mass. Surgical resection confirmed the co-existence of cardiac hemangioma and cardiac sarcoidosis within the same anatomical region. Based on these findings, we propose a pathophysiological mechanism wherein cardiac sarcoidosis causes microvascular injury, leading to structural alterations that may promote the development of cardiac hemangioma. The following report details the diagnostic and therapeutic course of this patient.
