Experience using drug-coated balloon venoplasty for acquired pulmonary vein stenosis after radiofrequency ablation.
Article in Journal of cardiology cases, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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 vein stenosis is a rare but severe complication of catheter ablation for arterial fibrillation (AF). Symptoms include dyspnea, hemoptysis, recurrent pneumonia, and pulmonary hypertension. We herein discuss a 27-year-old male patient who presented with hemoptysis and dyspnea three months after catheter ablation for AF. Computed tomography demonstrated an occluded left inferior pulmonary vein (LIPV) and left lower lung edema secondary to severe stenosis of the LIPV. The patient underwent treatment, including drug-coated balloon (DCB) venoplasty. Treatment of pulmonary vein stenosis involving percutaneous interventions with balloon angioplasty and stenting carry a high risk of restenosis. DCB therapy may be used to prevent stenosis. <
