Tricuspid Stenosis Due to Cardiac Sarcoma.
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
Primary cardiac sarcomas are rare, aggressive malignant tumors with high recurrence rates and poor prognosis. Their initial presentation is often vague, contributing to diagnostic delay and rapid clinical deterioration. We report the case of a 32-year-old man who presented with gastrointestinal symptoms and constitutional features, initially suggesting a hepatobiliary or infectious cause. As his condition progressed, signs of right-sided heart failure emerged, prompting transthoracic echocardiography, which revealed a large right atrial mass causing tricuspid inflow obstruction and a significant pericardial effusion. Surgical resection confirmed biphasic synovial sarcoma, a subtype previously described in small case series. Despite an initially uncomplicated postoperative course, he subsequently developed atrial flutter with associated left ventricular dysfunction, necessitating cardioversion. Anthracycline toxicity remains a possible contributing factor. This case underscores the importance of maintaining a broad differential diagnosis in young patients with unexplained systemic symptoms and highlights the diagnostic value of early echocardiographic assessment when right-sided cardiac involvement is suspected. It also reinforces the need for multidisciplinary management given the tumor's aggressive behavior and potential for rapid clinical decline.
