Surgical outcomes of atrial cardiac tumors: a single-center 14-case series including right atrial and malignant tumors.
Article in Journal of surgical 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
Primary cardiac tumors are rare, with myxomas predominating and usually located in the left atrium. Right atrial tumors are less frequent but clinically significant because of the risks of embolism, hemodynamic compromise, and conduction disturbance. We reviewed 14 patients who underwent surgical resection of atrial tumors at our institution. The cohort included three right atrial and 11 left atrial tumors, with two malignant histologies. All right atrial tumors were resected en bloc with the adjacent wall, requiring autologous pericardial patch closure. Most left atrial tumors also required autologous pericardial patch reconstruction. Malignant tumors determined survival; one patient with intimal sarcoma died early from acute respiratory distress syndrome, and one patient with biphasic synovial sarcoma died 51 months later from pleural dissemination. No recurrence of the benign tumors was observed. Our single-center 14-case series highlights that while the surgical approach varies by tumor location, long-term outcomes are mainly influenced by histology.
