An occult iatrogenic pneumothorax as a cosmetic procedure complication.

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
A pneumothorax is the abnormal gas accumulation within the pleural space. We present a case of a patient with an occult iatrogenic pneumothorax who presented with symptomatic anemia that substantially improved after a transfusion, diverting the clinical suspicion. As a result, she developed acute respiratory distress, initially considered secondary to a possible pulmonary embolism vs. fat embolism. After computed tomography confirmed the diagnosis, a chest tube was inserted. This case emphasizes the importance of suspecting pneumothorax secondary to cosmetic procedures and using computed tomography as the first diagnostic tool in complex cases since chest x-rays can miss pneumothorax.
