Air bubbles in the anterior chamber associated with double lung transplantation: Evidence of cryptic transmission.
Article in American journal of ophthalmology case reports, 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
Purpose: To highlight ocular air bubbles as a diagnostically relevant indicator of systemic air embolism. Observations: We describe a case of a patient who developed air bubbles in his anterior chamber following double lung transplant and failed extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) cannulation. The air bubbles subsequently self-resolved without intervention prior to the patient's passing. Conclusions and Importance: We suspect the air bubbles developed due to air entering the anterior chamber from an endogenous, coronary pathway. Claim of priority declaration: After conducting a literature review on May 28, 2025, utilizing PubMed and Google Scholar, using the key words ("air embolus," "air embolism," "air bubbles," "eye," "anterior chamber"), we did not find any prior reports of patients with air bubbles in the anterior chamber following systemic embolization events.
