1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Hemoptysis involves compromised pulmonary vasculature of bronchial versus pulmonary arterial origins, with both life-threatening and non-life-threatening causes. Life-threatening hemoptysis is uncommon. To date, published cases of Rasmussen aneurysm remain low and subsequently underrecognized. We report on a 63-year-old male from Mexico with a more than 30-pack-year smoking history, but no history of lung disease, who presented to the emergency department with cough and hemoptysis for one week. A computed tomography angiography (CTA) chest demonstrated a pseudoaneurysm and hemorrhage, consistent with a Rasmussen aneurysm. Interventional radiology performed a pulmonary angiography, and subsequent coil embolization of the tertiary feeding arteries was performed. This case demonstrates a rare pulmonary artery pseudoaneurysm, known simply as Rasmussen aneurysm, that was successfully managed with coil embolization and highlights the importance of considering the disease in the differential diagnosis for patients with hemoptysis.
