Coil embolization of anomalous systemic artery to the left lower lobe in an asymptomatic adult: a case report.
Article in Journal of cardiothoracic surgery, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
backgroundAnomalous systemic artery to the left lower lobe (ASALLL) is a rare congenital anomaly. The primary symptoms include hemoptysis and lung infection, though some patients may remain asymptomatic. Currently, there is no consensus on the indications for treatment or the optimal choice of therapy for this condition. This case presents a case of an asymptomatic adult who underwent coil embolization. CASE PRESENTATION: A 48-year-old male was admitted to our hospital due to the discovery of a space-occupying lesion in the left hilum. The contrast-enhanced pulmonary computed tomography scan was used to diagnose the patient with an anomalous systemic artery to the left lower lobe. We performed coil embolization on this patient, who underwent a follow-up computed tomography angiography of the pulmonary and bronchial arteries one year later. Result demonstrated complete embolization of the abnormal systemic arteries and a slight reduction in the volume of the left lower lobe.
conclusionCoil embolization is a safe and minimally invasive procedure for adult patients who have an anomalous systemic artery to the left lower lobe.
