A successful surgical repair of pulmonary stenosis caused by isolated pulmonary Takayasu's arteritis.
Article in Heart and vessels, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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 48-year-old man underwent surgery to treat pulmonary stenoses of unknown origin. The right main pulmonary artery was severely stenotic, and the orifice of the left pulmonary artery was focally constricted. The patient was nearly asymptomatic, despite marked pulmonary hypertension and right heart strain. The pressure gradients beyond the stenotic regions were 88 mmHg bilaterally. The cause of the stenoses could not be established before operation. The right main pulmonary artery and ascending aorta were successfully replaced. It was suspected that the ascending aorta was involved because it was markedly thickened and adhered tightly to the right pulmonary artery. It was therefore also replaced. However, only the transected right pulmonary artery showed histological evidence consistent with a diagnosis of Takayasu's arteritis. The postoperative course was uneventful. The patient was completely free of symptoms six months after the operation. To our knowledge, this is the thirteenth surgically treated case of isolated pulmonary Takayasu's arteritis to be reported.
