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

Unilateral absence of the pulmonary artery is a congenital disorder resulting from malformation of the sixth aortic arch during embryogenesis. This case report presents a unique instance of unilateral absence of the pulmonary artery, incidentally discovered in an individual with multiple myeloma. Despite a history of recurrent childhood pulmonary infections, the patient remained asymptomatic until presenting with symptoms of myeloma. Imaging revealed a right-sided aortic arch, absent left pulmonary artery, and left lung atrophy with atelectasis. Among various collateral arteries, a notable finding in this case is the left gastric artery supplying the left lower lobe.
