Utility of indocyanine green in assessing blood perfusion in anomalous systemic arterial supply to the lung.
Article in Journal of surgical case reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
The chosen treatment for anomalous systemic arterial supply to the basal segment of the lung (ABLL) is typically the division of the anomalous artery and resection of the abnormal area, dependent on the anomalous artery. Although only division or interventional embolization of the anomalous artery may be selected. However, leaving the area dependent on the anomalous artery can lead to complications, such as necrosis and pulmonary infarction. We report the case of a 39-year-old female with ABLL. Intraoperatively, the anomalous artery was first divided. Indocyanine green (ICG) was subsequently injected intravenously to evaluate blood perfusion within the abnormal lung area. Since the abnormal area was still poorly perfused after a few minutes, a left basal segmentectomy was performed because of the possibility of complications. Thus, evaluation of perfusion via ICG can be used in the decision to resect abnormal area.
