Use of an Indwelling Pleural Catheter in a Malignant Effusion With Concurrent
Article in Respirology case reports, 2025. 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
A 63-year-old male was diagnosed with a combination of three concurrent diseases: stage 4 lung adenocarcinoma, ipsilateral mycobacterium avium complex (MAC) pleural effusion, and advanced HIV. He has been successfully treated for each diagnosis. At 2 years from presentation he continues on immunotherapy, with his pleural culture clear of MAC, and he has an undetectable HIV viral load. An indwelling pleural catheter was inserted for management of the recurrent malignant pleural effusion. We describe our management approach to a combined malignant and MAC related effusion in a patient with co-existing advanced HIV.
