A first case report of neonatal persistent pneumothorax treated with an autologous blood patch.

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
Pneumothorax is the most common type of air leak. Although the majority of pneumothoraces resolves spontaneously, some continue several days after the lung injury. Autologous blood patch pleurodesis is the most commonly used technique in the treatment of persistent pneumothorax. The use of an autologous blood patch in persistent pneumothorax in neonates has not been reported before. We report the first case of newborn persistent pneumothorax successfully treated with an autologous blood patch. The patient was a newborn aged 2 days. He was admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit due to subcostal-intercostal retractions after birth. Chest X-ray was performed and pneumothorax was detected on the right side. Persistence of the air leak led to treatment with an autologous blood patch on day 17 of pneumothorax development. Pleurodesis was repeated on days 3 and 6 of the first autologous blood patch, respectively. Air leak sealed within 2 days after the third autologous blood patch. In our opinion, this procedure is safe and effective when performed with the correct technique, and can also be used safely in newborns.
