Giant Isolated Congenital Left Atrial Appendage Aneurysm Complicated by Thrombus: Multimodality Imaging Assessment.
Article in JACC. Case reports, 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
backgroundLeft atrial appendage aneurysm (LAAA) is a rare cardiac malformation; giant forms of LAAA complicated by thrombus are exceptionally uncommon. CASE SUMMARY: A 36-year-old woman with atrial flutter, palpitations, and dyspnea was evaluated after chest radiography showed cardiomegaly and computed tomography revealed a mediastinal mass. Cardiac magnetic resonance confirmed a giant LAAA measuring 11 × 6 × 1 cm with a thrombus measuring 21 × 25 × 24 mm, producing a mass effect and contacting the mid-left anterior descending artery. Surgical resection was performed, with remission of atrial flutter, resolution of symptoms, and clinical stability at 6-month follow-up. DISCUSSION: LAAA is linked to arrhythmia, embolic events, and compression. Multimodality imaging defines anatomy and thrombus, while surgery is the treatment in complicated cases. TAKE-HOME MESSAGES: LAAA carries risks of arrhythmia, thromboembolism, and compression. Multimodality imaging enables diagnosis and thrombus detection. Surgery provides symptom relief, arrhythmia remission, and prevention of complications.
