Isolated unilateral absence of pulmonary artery (IUAPA) in adults: A case series and review of literature.
Article in Respirology case reports, 2023. 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
Unilateral Absence of Pulmonary Artery (UAPA) is a rare congenital malformation that is usually associated with cardiac anomalies. When there is no congenital cardiac abnormality it is rarer still and is termed isolated unilateral absence of pulmonary artery (IUAPA) (4). IUAPA may remain undetected until adulthood and frequently found incidentally on imaging for other indications. Symptoms are usually secondary to complications which include pulmonary hypertension, recurrent respiratory tract infections, bronchiectasis and haemoptysis. We report two cases with widely contrasting presentation and trajectories, leading to individualized management strategies.
