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

Objective: To assess the safety and efficacy of bronchial artery embolization (BAE) for hemoptysis. Methods and materials: Databases with articles published in English, including Pubmed, Embase, Web of science and Chochrane library, were comprehensively searched to get accurate, up-to-date and sufficient literature about BAE for hemoptysis until March 2020. The technical success rates, immediate control rates, recurrence rates, mortality rates, and total complication rates (minor and major complication rates) extracted from the articles were pooled to estimate and assess the efficacy and safety of BAE using random-effect and fixed-effect models. Results: 21 articles published between 2008 and 2019, which include a total of 2511 patients, were studied to evaluate the safety and efficacy of BAE. The technical success and immediate control rates are 99.9% (95%CI: 99%-100%) and 99.5% (95%CI: 97.8%-99.2%), respectively. This study showed hemoptysis recurrence in 23.7% (95%CI: 18.5%-28.9%) with a mortality rate of 2% (95%CI: 0-3%). Additionally, the assessment of complications revealed a total complication rate of 13.4% (95% CI: 7.6-19.2%), in which 0.2% (95% CI: 0.2-0.4%) were major complications and 10% (95% CI: 4.7-9.6%) were minor complications. Conclusion: BAE is an effective, safe, and feasible procedure with a low complication rate for hemoptysis patients. However, recurrence of hemoptysis is still at high risk after BAE due to different underlying diseases.
