An isolated congenital absence of right pulmonary artery associated with coronary and multiple systemic collaterals: A case report and literature review.
Review in The Journal of international medical research, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Unilateral pulmonary artery agenesis (UPAA) is the complete absence of either the right or left pulmonary artery. It is a rare congenital malformation, usually associated with other cardiac defects; however, in some cases, it may occur as an isolated lesion, typically affecting the right side. Patients with isolated right pulmonary artery agenesis are often diagnosed incidentally on chest radiographs in adulthood. Rare cases are associated with multiple systemic collaterals that supply the affected lung. We report the case of a 69-year-old man with the absence of a right pulmonary artery, arterial supply to the right lung from the celiac trunk, and communication of the collaterals with a marginal branch arising from the right coronary artery. UPAA is a rare congenital anomaly that may present with nonspecific symptoms, such as dyspnea and recurrent chest infections. Clinicians should consider UPAA in the differential diagnosis of respiratory symptoms, particularly in adult patients with unexplained symptoms.
