Robotic right lower lobectomy for a persistent large pulmonary arteriovenous malformation following repeated coil embolization.
Article in Journal of vascular surgery cases and innovative techniques, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Pulmonary arteriovenous malformations create continuous shunting of unoxygenated blood through the lungs into the systemic circulation. These malformations are asymptomatic if small, but cause serious symptoms as they grow in size. Treatment primarily consists of endovascular embolization; lobectomy is preserved for recurring or endovascularly untreatable cases. We describe a case of a 24-year-old man who was first treated with coil embolization 10 years previously, with complete symptom resolution. However, more recently he noted recurrent exercise intolerance, with shortness of breath and hypoxemia. After repeat re-embolization, a computed tomography scan noted some persistent flow. Given the patient's young age, we considered resection as a definite therapy. The patient underwent an uncomplicated robot-assisted right lower lobectomy. Afterward, his symptoms resolved completely. In selected cases, robotic lobectomy for pulmonary arteriovenous malformation is feasible and safe.
