Wallenberg syndrome in a patient after pulmonary resection: a case report.
Article in General thoracic and cardiovascular surgery cases, 2023. 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
backgroundCerebral infarction after pulmonary resection is a minor but critical complication. We report a rare case of postoperative complication of Wallenberg syndrome caused by cerebral infarction in the posterior inferior cerebral artery after the left upper lobectomy. CASE PRESENTATION: A 72-year-old man developed cerebral infarction 2 days after a left upper lobectomy for lung cancer. Magnetic resonance imaging indicated right vertebral artery occlusion following an early ischemic area on the right lateral side of the medulla oblongata and cerebellum. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography revealed no thrombus in the left superior pulmonary vein stump. The patient was diagnosed with Wallenberg syndrome, and prompt anticoagulation therapy was initiated. The patient was discharged and transferred to another hospital for rehabilitation on postoperative day 16.
conclusionsWe present a rare case of Wallenberg syndrome occurring in the posterior inferior cerebral artery area due to vertebral artery occlusion after lobectomy. Because cerebral infarction of the posterior circulation has many similar symptoms due to the side effects of anesthetic drugs, careful physical examination is required to determine Wallenberg syndrome.
