Aberrant mediastinal basal pulmonary artery encountered at anatomical lung resection: A case report and review of the literature.

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
introductionAbnormal branching of the pulmonary artery is often encountered in anatomical lung resection, which can potentially result in accidental vessel injury with life-threatening bleeding or extra lung resection. The mediastinal basal pulmonary artery (Arteria Praebronchialis, AP) is a very rare but potentially critical variant. PRESENTATION OF CASE: We present the case of a patient with lung cancer accompanied by the left basal segmental pulmonary artery, independent A DISCUSSION AND LITERATURE REVIEW: 3D-CECT angiography was effective in identifying this rare but potentially critical variation, and it is desirable to perform it routinely before anatomical lung resection. A review of 31 AP cases revealed that the branching pattern of AP was independent (15 patients, 48 %) and common trunk type (16 patients, 52 %), one half for each. Mediastinal branching of the lingular artery was more frequent among the reported AP cases (71 %) than in general reports.
conclusionWhen mediastinal branches of left pulmonary artery are encountered, the possibility that it is AP should be always taken into account.
