1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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 sequestration is a malformation of lung tissue such that a zone of pulmonary parenchyma exists in isolation from the bronchopulmonary tree. This condition is typically treated with surgical resection, but an increasing number of sequestrations are being treated with arterial embolization. We report interventions that were performed at two institutions on patients 53-70 years old. One patient presented with chronic cough and the two other patients presented with hemoptysis. Two of the cases were managed solely by endovascular embolization of the arteries supplying the pulmonary sequestration. In one patient, embolization was performed to debulk the sequestration, followed by surgical resection. These cases suggest transcatheter embolization may be an effective treatment in adult patients with symptomatic pulmonary sequestrations.
