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

Massive haemoptysis is a medical emergency with high mortality if not promptly addressed. This pictorial essay aims to guide clinicians through the selection and execution of life-saving endovascular interventions tailored to the underlying vascular etiology. Emphasis is placed on clinical presentation, imaging clues, and procedural decision-making to enhance understanding among trainees and practicing radiologists. We present a curated series of cases of life-threatening haemoptysis managed with bronchial artery embolization (BAE), pulmonary artery embolization (PAE), embolization of acquired aortopulmonary collaterals (APCs), and thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR). Each case is dissected to highlight the clinical scenario, angiographic findings, interventional technique, and outcome. Endovascular management of haemoptysis should be guided by the underlying etiology and vascular anatomy. A structured approach to imaging interpretation, selective angiography, and tailored endovascular management can drastically reduce mortality. This educational overview bridges the gap between diagnosis and intervention, reinforcing practical decision-making in pulmonary vascular emergencies.
