Bronchoscopic Closure of Bronchopleural Fistula with Occluder.
Review in Cancer management and research, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Bronchopleural Fistula (BPF) represents one of the gravest complications post-lobectomy. Present treatment strategies encompass a wide array of surgical techniques complemented by essential adjunct therapies. Despite numerous treatment modalities, mortality rates associated with BPF remain disconcertingly high. Advances in bronchoscopic technology have led to the widespread adoption of bronchoscopic interventions, celebrated for their safety, minimal invasiveness, and efficacy. The cornerstone of BPF management involves the use of sealants, metal-covered stents, and occlusion devices, with the success of these occlusions critically dependent on the fistula's dimensions. Particularly for expansive BPFs deemed inappropriate for surgical intervention, metal-covered stents and occlusion devices are frequently favored. This review critically assesses the therapeutic efficacy and clinical utility of metal-covered stents and occlusion devices through a comprehensive analysis of the extant literature. Additionally, it outlines risk stratification and management strategies for BPF, with the intent to furnish novel insights and methodologies for the clinical diagnosis and treatment of this complex condition.
