Selective Bronchial Occlusion for Treatment of a Bronchopleural Fistula in an Extremely Preterm Infant.
Article in Children (Basel, Switzerland), 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
Neonatal pulmonary air leak commonly occurs as a complication of mechanical ventilation in infants with underlying hyaline membrane disease. They can commonly be managed conservatively or with the application of a chest drain, but some severe cases pose a significant challenge in finding an alternative therapeutic solution. Selective bronchial occlusion represents an unconventional rescue therapy for treating bronchopleural fistula resistant to the standard therapy. A 27-week gestation preterm infant ventilated for respiratory distress syndrome developed tension right-sided pneumothorax. Conventional modalities of treatment were tried and were unsuccessful. Intermittent selective bronchial occlusion with a Fogarty's catheter and high-frequency oscillatory ventilation resulted in considerable improvement in the infant's clinical condition and radiographic findings.
