A Giant in Plain Sight: Multimodality Imaging of a Left Ventricular Fibroma.
Article in Cureus, 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
A 14-year-old survivor of out-of-hospital ventricular fibrillation arrest with a large intramural left ventricular fibroma and a secondary-prevention implantable cardioverter-defibrillator underwent multimodality reassessment after device lead fracture. Left ventricular ejection fraction was mildly reduced, whereas speckle-tracking echocardiography demonstrated near-akinetic deformation within tumour-bearing segments. Cardiac computed tomography and three-dimensional reconstruction showed the left circumflex coronary artery and first obtuse marginal branch coursing directly over the mass, with additional proximity to the lateral mitral apparatus. These findings demonstrated substantial regional mechanical impairment while defining the hazards of complete resection. Following multidisciplinary review, device protection and imaging surveillance were favoured over high-risk surgery. This case illustrates how complementary functional and anatomical imaging can resolve a complex management dilemma in ventricular fibroma.
