A case report of pulmonary artery sling and situs inversus incompletes.
Article in Medicine, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
rationalePulmonary artery sling (PAS) is a rare congenital anomaly. Associated airway anomalies and/or those of the cardiovascular system are present in about half the patients. Situs inversus is a rare disease in which organs of the chest and/or abdomen are arranged in a mirror image reversal of their normal position. Herein, we report a rare case of pulmonary artery sling and situs inversus incompletus, which has not yet been reported. PATIENT CONCERNS: A 10-year-old girl was admitted because of heart murmur for more than 9 years. On physical examination, the second heart sound was prominent, and a grade 2/6 systolic murmur was heard at the left mid-sternal border. Echocardiography revealed PAS and atrial septal defect (8.6 mm). A chest computer tomography angiograph demonstrated that she had lung inversus, right aortic arch, and right lung hypoplasia in addition to PAS, with a normal positioning of the heart. The PAS intersected and twisted across the bronchus, which was obviously narrowed. The PAS was type II B, since the carina was at the T6 level without a separate right upper lobe bronchus. DIAGNOSES: Her final diagnosis was that of PAS, tracheal stenosis, situs inversus incompletus, right lung hypoplasia, right aortic arch, ASD and PDA.
interventionsShe underwent one-stage total correction for her initial cardiovascular defects through median sternotomy under cardiopulmonary bypass support. OUTCOMES: She had an uneventful recovery and completely healthy following the procedure. LESSONS: A thorough examination before PAS surgery was essential in discovering and carefully evaluating complicated heart and lung anomalies.
