Successful management of delayed postoperative lung collapse secondary to spillage of aspergilloma.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Aspergilloma usually grows in lung cavities, although some may present with intrabronchial masses. Bronchial spillage during surgery is a known and disastrous complication of cavitary aspergilloma with bronchial communication. We present a case of a man in his 40s who developed a cavitary aspergilloma with recurrent haemoptysis almost a decade after his pulmonary tuberculosis. Following a segmentectomy for the same, the patient was extubated on table with well-expanded lung fields. Six hours later, he developed respiratory distress, and X-ray showed a complete lung collapse. An emergency bronchoscopy revealed a fungal ball obstructing the left main bronchus. The mass was successfully removed through bronchoscope, and the patient had lung expansion and uneventful recovery.
