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

backgroundCor triatriatum sinister (CTS) is a rare congenital anomaly, infrequently identified in asymptomatic adults. CASE SUMMARY: A 64-year-old man presented with asymptomatic atrial flutter detected on routine electrocardiogram. Rate control was suboptimal, and because of unknown arrhythmia duration, transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) was performed before cardioversion. TEE excluded intracardiac thrombus and incidentally revealed a left atrial membrane. Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging confirmed nonobstructive CTS. The patient underwent successful TEE-guided electrical cardioversion and was discharged on anticoagulation. DISCUSSION: CTS has been associated with atrial arrhythmia, although causality remains uncertain, particularly when arrhythmia originates from the right atrium. This case highlights the role of multimodality imaging in identifying incidental congenital anomalies and guiding safe management. TAKE-HOME MESSAGES: Careful atrial evaluation during TEE may reveal incidental CTS. Distinguishing associations from causation is essential for appropriate management.
