Rasmussen aneurysm: A hidden hazard.
Article in Respiratory medicine case reports, 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
Tuberculosis is endemic in Pakistan and other countries in South Asia despite various treatment programs being introduced for its elimination. It leads to a number of serious consequences which involve different organ systems of the body and Rasmussen Aneurysm is one such serious complication. It is the pseudo-aneurysmal dilatation of the pulmonary artery adjacent to a tubercular cavity and manifests as massive hemoptysis, like in the case of our patient. It is important to note that our patient was not diagnosed with TB and also denied any common symptoms and contact with persons with TB. This signifies that the progression to Rasmussen Aneurysm is not linear and anyone with TB may present with life-threatening hemoptysis, therefore this case report proves to be essential in raising awareness of such instances. This further highlights the need for nationwide screening programs and designated management plans.
