Lone Giant Atrium as a Variant of Atrial Cardiomyopathy: A Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance Imaging Case Series.
Article in Journal of cardiovascular development and disease, 2024. 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
Advances in cardiovascular imaging have expanded the scope and precision of rare diagnoses. Handling a patient with a giant left atrium, we focused on the existence and associated factors of "lone giant (left or right) atria" in our clinical setting. The aim of the current study was to establish reasonable cut-off values for the diagnosis of "giant atrium". Our analysis utilised echocardiography and cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging databases, with the original data re-assessed to ensure consistency and comparability. Four patients met the search criteria, with two cases requiring CMR to confirm the diagnosis of "giant atrium", correcting the initial echocardiographic assessment. Both echocardiography and CMR excel in the assessment of atrial anatomy, although the superior image quality and multiplanar capabilities of CMR support its preference. In assessing the atrial size, the use of 3D volumetric measurements should replace traditional biplane methods due to the complex anatomy of the atrium. We propose the use of an indexed volume threshold (>120 mL/m
