Delayed Diagnosis of Partial Anomalous Pulmonary Venous Return in an Adult With Pulmonary Hypertension.
Article in Journal of investigative medicine high impact case reports. 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
Partial anomalous pulmonary venous return (PAPVR) involving the left upper lobe pulmonary vein is an exceptionally rare congenital anomaly that, if untreated, can lead to pulmonary hypertension (PH). Its nonspecific clinical presentation often results in delayed diagnosis. We report the case of a 58-year-old woman who initially presented with progressive dyspnea and was diagnosed with group III pulmonary hypertension attributed to obstructive lung disease. Two years later, she returned with similar symptoms after discontinuing diuretic therapy. Further evaluation uncovered a previously undetected anomalous left pulmonary vein draining into the left innominate vein. This case highlights the diagnostic challenges of PAPVR, its role in contributing to PH, and the critical need for high clinical suspicion and comprehensive evaluation in patients with unexplained pulmonary hypertension.
