Long-Term Clinical Outcome of Abdomino-Thoracic Lymphatic Interventions of Traumatic and Non-Traumatic Lymphatic Leakage in Adults.
Article in Biomedicines, 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
The aim of this study was to retrospectively evaluate the long-term results of lymphatic interventions in adults with abdomino-thoracic lymphatic pathologies. Management of abdomino-thoracic chylous effusions in adults undergoing X-ray-lymphangiography with or without lymph-vessel embolization (LVE) from 2010-2018 was reviewed. Patients underwent lymphangiography alone when imaging showed normal findings or lymphatic obstruction without leakage or reflux; otherwise, LVE was performed (leakage, reflux, obstruction with leakage or reflux, lymphatic masses). Technical and clinical success, complications, and long-term outcomes were assessed. 78 patients (47 male, median age 56.3 years) were treated for chylous effusions (60.3% traumatic, 39.7% non-traumatic). Lymphangiography showed leakage (48.7%), reflux (14.1%), obstruction (28.2%), lymphatic masses (5.1%), and normal findings (3.8%). Embolization was performed in 49/78 (62.8%) cases. Overall, treatment was clinically successful in 74.4% (mean follow-up of 28 months), with significant differences between LVE and lymphangiography (91.8% vs. 44.8%;
