1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Haemoptysis can be a life-threatening condition, and bronchial artery embolisation (BAE) is the most effective treatment. A 19-year-old man who had been followed up for neutrophil migration failure and bronchiectasis since birth was admitted to our department with repeated haemoptysis. Contrast-enhanced CT revealed hyperplasia and tortuosity of the bronchial artery; however, it could not reveal the origin and running by the axial views. Three-dimensional (3D) and four-dimensional (4D) CT revealed branching of the right bronchial artery from the left subclavian artery and a bronchial artery-pulmonary artery shunt. Bronchial angiography confirmed these findings. Based on these findings, BAE was successfully performed. 3D and 4D CT can be useful for determining the cause of haemoptysis. Furthermore, evaluating the anatomy of bronchial arteries prior to BAE may be useful for performing safer procedures.
