Bronchial occlusion with endobronchial Watanabe spigots using a two-scope technique for massive haemoptysis.
Article in Respirology case reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Massive haemoptysis is a life-threatening condition whose cause needs to be identified rapidly so that prompt interventions can ensue. Bronchial occlusion with endobronchial Watanabe spigots (EWSs) may be useful when endovascular treatment or surgery proves to be difficult. An 84-year-old woman developed massive haemoptysis during percutaneous mitral valve repair for refractory heart failure due to severe mitral regurgitation (MR). Interventional radiology (IVR) and surgery were contraindicated, and bronchial occlusion with EWSs was attempted to control bleeding. The bleeding was so persistent that it was difficult to secure the visual field without aspiration with a bronchoscope. Herein, we report a two-scope technique, also used in cryobiopsy of peripheral lung lesions, to control bleeding and perform bronchial occlusion with EWSs.
