Successful embolization of giant pulmonary artery pseudoaneurysm using coils and ethylene vinyl alcohol copolymer (Onyx).
Article in Radiology case reports, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 3 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
Hemoptysis could be a life-threatening event, especially when the bleeding originates from the arterial pulmonary circulation. The main cause of this type of bleeding is pulmonary artery pseudoaneurysm (PAP), which can be managed by surgical, medical or minimally invasive techniques. This study reports the case of massive hemoptysis in a 75-year-old male patient, with a former history of lobectomy. The initial CT scan showed a giant PAP from a branch of the right middle lobar pulmonary artery, within the right lower lobectomy cavity. An endovascular approach was decided. Subsequently, the feeding artery of the PAP was embolized with detachable coils. The control CT scan showed a persistent opacification of the PAP. The embolization was then completed by injection of Onyx within coils packing, with a complete thrombose of the PAP on control CT scan. This report confirms the safety and efficacy profile of an endovascular approach to treat giant PAP, using a combination of coils and Onyx.
