Posterior circulation infarction after bronchial artery embolization.
Article in Acta radiologica open, 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
Bronchial artery embolization is minimally invasive, has a low complication rate, and achieves good hemorrhage control. It is the first-line treatment in hemoptysis patients whom medications are ineffective. Cerebral infarction is a rare complication of bronchial artery embolization, with posterior circulation infarcts being the most common. Possible mechanisms include a neurotoxic reaction to the contrast medium used, bronchial artery-pulmonary shunt, embolus formation, fistula formation between the bronchial artery and the cerebral artery, and so on. To the best of our knowledge, there have been relatively few reports regarding posterior circulation infarcts after BAE, including 14 cases shown in Table 1. 11 patients recovered well after medical treatment, while the other patients did not survive. We report a case of a patient with a large posterior circulation infarct post bronchial artery embolization who developed severe neurological symptoms and died after 3 months of medication. Conclusion: Posterior circulation infarction is a rare but severe complication of bronchial artery embolization, and measures should be taken to prevent its occurrence.
