Rare location and drainage pattern of right pulmonary veins and aberrant right upper lobe bronchial branch: A case report.

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
backgroundComplex aberration in lung is rare, which may increase risk of vascular injury and cause ligation of wrong pulmonary vein or bronchus by mistake during lung surgery, and result in sever complication like pulmonary congestion or atelectasis. CASE SUMMARY: A 44-year-old female was admitted for a ground glass nodule (24 mm in diameter) in her right upper lobe. Video-assisted thoracoscopic (VATS) right upper lobectomy with lymph nodes dissection was performed. During operation, we simultaneously identified extremely rare aberrations of right preeparterial bronchus, right upper lobe vein behind pulmonary artery and right middle lobe vein drained into left atrium in this patient. The patient was well recovered and discharged at the postoperative-day 4.
conclusionPreoperatively, three-dimensional reconstruction can help to identify inconspicuous variation of pulmonary vessels and bronchus effectively. During lung surgery, if anatomic aberration is suspected, careful dissection of vessels and bronchus will help to confirm whether there is an aberration or not.
