Emergency surgery for hemothorax due to a ruptured pulmonary arteriovenous malformation.
Article in General thoracic and cardiovascular surgery, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Pulmonary arteriovenous malformation (PAVM) is a potential cause of hemothorax. The risk of PAVM rupture is reported to be higher during pregnancy for several reasons, including increased body fluid and a change in hormonal conditions. A 34-year-old pregnant woman suddenly felt right chest pain and dyspnea in the 28th week of gestation. Chest X-ray and computed tomography showed massive right pleural effusion. Her vital signs gradually deteriorated with hemorrhagic shock, necessitating emergency surgery. During exploratory thoracoscopy, active bleeding from the middle lobe was noticed and gauze packing was required to maintain her blood pressure. Following conversion to major thoracotomy, wedge resection of the middle lobe was performed with a linear stapler, and finally, her general condition became stable. Her postoperative course was uneventful. A histological examination of the resected specimen confirmed the diagnosis of ruptured PAVM. Her baby was successfully delivered at the 38th week of gestation.
