A Case of Tension Pneumomediastinum Treated With Mediastinal Drainage Using a Semi-flexible Fiberscope via a Subxiphoid Approach.

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
Tension pneumomediastinum with hemodynamic failure is a rare but life-threatening condition. Rapid decompression of the mediastinum by drainage is essential to save the patient's life. This report presents a case of tension pneumomediastinum that developed during conservative management of a pneumomediastinum associated with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. Endoscopically guided mediastinal drainage was successfully performed in the emergency situation of tension pneumomediastinum. Using the semi-flexible fiberscope inserted through a subxiphoid approach, the drainage catheter was easily and safely placed at the appropriate site in the mediastinum. Good mediastinal decompression was achieved, and the patient was out of this critical condition.
