Tailored Anesthetic Management in a Patient With Birt-Hogg-Dubé Syndrome: Navigating the Risk of Pneumothorax and Renal Dysfunction in a Case Report.

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
Birt-Hogg-Dubé syndrome (BHDS) is a rare genetic disorder characterized by multiple pulmonary cysts, increasing the risk of pneumothorax under positive pressure ventilation. We report a case of a 50-year-old woman with BHDS, recurrent pneumothorax, and post-renal transplant chronic renal failure, who underwent three surgeries within three years. Anesthetic management was tailored to minimize the risk of pneumothorax and deterioration of renal function, including spinal anesthesia for cervical conization, combined epidural-general anesthesia with lung-protective ventilation for open sigmoid colectomy, and general anesthesia with peripheral nerve blocks for an emergency Hartmann's procedure. Careful ventilation strategies, controlled extubation using a supraglottic airway under deep anesthesia, and renal-protective management employing regional anesthesia successfully prevented perioperative complications. This case highlights the need for individualized anesthetic management in BHDS patients with renal transplants, emphasizing careful strategies to protect both pulmonary and renal function.
