Proximal interruption of the pulmonary artery: A review of radiological findings.
Article in Frontiers in pediatrics, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Objectives: Proximal interruption of the pulmonary artery (PIPA) has various clinical manifestations. This review focused on and summarized the clinical and radiological features of PIPA, based on relevant literature studies. Methods: The study included a total of 25 PIPA cases in the Guangzhou Women and Children's Medical Center between January 2015 and December 2021. Conventional chest photographs and chest computed tomography angiography (CCTA) of patients with PIPA were analyzed and summarized. Results: The radiological results showed that 17 cases were right-sided and 8 cases were left-sided PIPA. Additionally, the percentage of pulmonary hypoplasia on the affected side was 44%, 36% for pulmonary hypertension, 28% for the mosaic sign, 20% for subpleural cystic lucency shadow, 20% for subpleural serrated shadow, 20% for collateral vessel thickening, 16% for subpleural band-like parenchyma, 12% for pneumonia, and 56% for patent ductus arteriosus. Conclusion: The clinical manifestations of PIPA are non-specific. Awareness of this anomaly, based on radiological manifestations, particularly those observed on CCTA images, is important for ruling out alternative diagnoses and implementing appropriate management.
