Giant atrial myxoma.
Article in Journal of ultrasound, 2026. 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
Cardiac myxomas are the most common primary cardiac tumors and typically arise from the left atrium. Although histologically benign, large and highly mobile myxomas may cause severe hemodynamic compromise and mimic valvular heart disease or heart failure syndromes. We present a pictorial essay illustrating the echocardiographic appearance and functional consequences of a giant left atrial myxoma in an elderly patient presenting with progressive dyspnea and signs of congestion. Transthoracic echocardiography revealed a large pedunculated mass attached to the interatrial septum, occupying the left atrium and dynamically prolapsing through the mitral valve during diastole, resulting in functional obstruction and severe mitral regurgitation. Surgical excision confirmed the diagnosis and led to complete clinical recovery. This pictorial essay highlights key echocardiographic features, hemodynamic effects, and teaching points relevant for diagnosis, differential assessment, and follow-up of atrial myxomas.
