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

introductionIschemia in extra-lobar pulmonary sequestration is rare and mostly occurs in childhood; it is uncommon in adults but can be progressive, necessitating surgical removal. CASE PRESENTATION: A 37-year-old woman experienced sudden onset severe back pain and was initially diagnosed with pneumonia. Computed tomography revealed a 4.5 cm mass on the diaphragm and rapidly increasing pleural effusion. Emergency surgery confirmed a black mass that adhered to the diaphragm, which could be bluntly detached, but one was fixed in a cord shape that was detached by an energy device. Pathology showed significant hemorrhage and tissue destruction in extra-lobar pulmonary sequestration.

conclusionsExtra-lobar pulmonary sequestration infarction, which develops suddenly with pain as the main complaint, is rare and mainly seen in early childhood but can also occur in adults.
