Congenital Left Atrial Appendage Aneurysm: The Role of Prenatal Fetal Echocardiography in Early Recognition.
Article in Cureus, 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
Congenital left atrial appendage aneurysm (CLAAA) is a rare congenital cardiac anomaly that can lead to significant cardiac and systemic complications. Early recognition through fetal echocardiographic scanning is crucial for establishing a comprehensive management plan prior to delivery, including baseline postnatal assessment and close follow-up to allow timely surgical resection before the development of severe local or systemic complications such as heart failure or thromboembolism. We report a case of giant CLAAA initially suspected as a fetal cardiac mass on routine obstetric ultrasound, which was subsequently characterized in detail by fetal echocardiography at our institution. The diagnosis was later confirmed postnatally by transthoracic echocardiography and computed tomography. When the patient developed atrial tachycardia, surgical resection of the aneurysm was performed successfully before the onset of any disabling systemic complications.
