Congenital Left Atrial Mitral Accessory Chord With Accessory Mitral Valve Tissue Causing Dual-Valve Regurgitation.

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
backgroundLeft atrial mitral valve (MV) accessory chord and accessory MV tissue are rare congenital anomalies that may mimic more common pathologies. CASE SUMMARY: A 30-year-old man presented with dyspnea, weight loss, and an outpatient transthoracic echocardiogram concerning for infective endocarditis. Transesophageal echocardiography revealed a chordlike structure extending from the limbus of the interatrial septum to the anterior MV leaflet, continuing through the left ventricular outflow tract, across the aortic valve, and into the ascending aorta. These findings were associated with moderate mitral regurgitation and severe aortic regurgitation. Surgical resection confirmed the diagnosis of accessory MV tissue with a left atrial MV accessory chord. DISCUSSION: Patients may present with heart failure or malperfusion symptoms due to valvopathy or left ventricular outflow tract obstruction. Multimodal imaging and surgical resection with valve repair are key to diagnosis and management. TAKE-HOME MESSAGES: Chordal anomalies can mimic endocarditis and cause dual-valve disease. Early transesophageal echocardiography and surgical intervention are critical to avoid misdiagnosis.
