Unilateral Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome with Contralateral Pulmonary Artery Agenesis: A Rare Scenario.

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
Unilateral pulmonary artery agenesis (UPAA) is a rare condition where the patient may remain asymptomatic for a long period till adulthood. Presentation may be in the form of dyspnea, cough, hemoptysis, decreased exercise tolerance, and recurrent respiratory tract infections. Ventilation-perfusion mismatch and excessive blood flow to the normal lung may eventually lead to unilateral acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). We present a case of a 40-year-old gentleman with nonresolving pneumonia who was diagnosed to have unilateral ARDS due to UPAA. Even though ARDS involves bilateral lung, unilateral ARDS which does not show resolution with lung protective strategies should always raise the suspicion of a rare disease like UPAA among clinicians. To date, there is no specific prescribed treatment for UPAA.
