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

Tufted angioma is a rare benign vascular tumor, and cardiac involvement is exceptionally uncommon. A term neonate with prenatal pericardial effusion developed recurrent tamponade despite drainage and medical therapy. Surgical exploration revealed a pericardial tufted angioma confirmed histologically. Recurrent neonatal pericardial effusion unresponsive to conventional therapy should prompt suspicion of vascular tumors. Early biopsy and targeted therapy with sirolimus and vincristine may be lifesaving.
