Pulmonary hypertension complicating unilateral absence of pulmonary artery and coronary-pulmonary artery fistula: Report of a case and review of the literature.
Article in Pulmonary circulation, 2022. 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
This is a case report of a 53-year-old woman who presented to our hospital in 2011 with an intermittent cough and dyspnea for 5 years. The chest X-ray showed a prominent left hilum and a smaller right lung. Computed tomography (CT) of the chest confirmed the absence of the right pulmonary artery (PA) and the right cardiac catheterization showed a mean PA pressure of 34 mmHg. Concomitant asthma and unilateral absence of pulmonary artery (UAPA) were diagnosed. In the following years, her functional class remained stable under medications including low-dose sildenafil and spironolactone. In 2020, she developed mild intermittent chest tightness and the coronary angiography showed a fistula between the proximal left circumflex coronary artery and right pulmonary circulation. She declined further intervention for her coronary-pulmonary artery fistula (CPAF) and her symptoms improved spontaneously. To our knowledge, only 16 similar cases with combined UAPA and CPAF in adults have been reported in the literature, of which, pulmonary hypertension was documented in nine patients (56.3%).
