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

backgroundRendu-Osler-Weber disease (Osler's disease) is the most common cause of pulmonary arteriovenous fistula. We report a case of pulmonary arteriovenous fistula associated with Osler's disease that was treated by lobectomy. CASE REPORT: A 44-year-old man with Osler's disease presented with respiratory distress. Computed tomography showed a pulmonary arteriovenous fistula, which had a 26-mm-long diameter in S6 of the left lung. Transcatheter treatment had a high risk of recurrence, and surgery was indicated. The pulmonary arteriovenous fistula was found at the beginning of A6. A6 and the basilar artery were cut together with a stapler. The postoperative course was uneventful, and respiratory distress symptoms improved with no recurrence.

conclusionWe report a case of pulmonary arteriovenous fistula caused by Osler's disease treated by lobectomy. Although transcatheter treatment is the mainstream treatment for pulmonary arteriovenous fistulas, surgical resection may be effective depending on the size of the lesion.
