Anesthetic Management of a Patient Undergoing Lymphangiography and Thoracic Duct Embolization for Chylothorax Following Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting.
Article in Annals of African medicine, 2025. 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
abstractThe thoracic duct is susceptible to damage from a variety of surgical operations, including esophagectomy, lung resection, and mediastinal or aortic surgery, because of its anatomical placement. Lymphatic leaks are known as chylothorax, which is a common complication of coronary artery bypass grafting. However, In congenital cardiac surgeries, the incidence of chylothorax ranges from 2.5% to 4.7%, while in esophageal procedures, it is 0.4%-4%. There have been a few reports of a chylous lymphatic leak following coronary bypass surgery. In this case report, we would like to present the anesthetic management of a chyle leak that developed a couple of days following triple coronary arterial bypass surgery, which was successfully managed with suprainguinal fascia iliaca compartment block for the embolization of the lymphatic duct.
