Air Embolism After Central Venous Catheter Insertion via the Internal Jugular Vein: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 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
We present the case of a 50-year-old female admitted to the intensive care unit with altered mental status and cardiovascular compromise. Despite vasopressor support via a central venous catheter in the right internal jugular vein, she remained in shock. Chest CT revealed an iatrogenic air embolism involving the right ventricle. The embolism resolved after catheter removal, Trendelenburg and left lateral decubitus positioning, and mechanical ventilation. However, the patient subsequently developed refractory septic shock, unresponsive to broad-spectrum antibiotics and maximum norepinephrine support, leading to her death on day six. This case highlights the importance of early detection and prompt management of air embolism.
