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

backgroundRight ventricular (RV) masses are rare and remain asymptomatic until they enlarge and cause hemodynamic instability, arrhythmias, or pericardial effusion. Echocardiography, computed tomography, and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging provide important information about the location and characteristics of masses. CASE SUMMARY: An 81-year-old man presented with chest pain and dizziness, with elevated biomarkers, and he was found to have a large RV intracardiac mass and pulmonary emboli. Subsequent cardiac biopsy revealed diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). The patient completed 6 cycles of chemotherapy, with complete remission at 4 months. DISCUSSION: DLBCL is a rare cause of primary cardiac tumor. Multimodality imaging and prompt pathologic assessment are critical in determining the etiology of the mass and appropriately guiding therapy. TAKE-HOME MESSAGES: RV masses require a broad differential diagnosis, including benign and malignant tumors. Multimodality imaging and cardiac biopsy are essential for making the diagnosis of DLBCL, which can respond quickly to medical treatment without surgical intervention.
