Intrapulmonary intra-arterial malposition of a port catheter-an exceptionally rare complication.
Article in Wiener medizinische Wochenschrift (1946), 2026. 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
Although port system implantations have been established as standardized surgical procedures, they may be associated with significant risks and complications. Therefore, both the planning and the correct execution of the implantation require a high degree of accuracy. To the best of our knowledge, the present case is the first report presenting a potentially life-threatening intrapulmonary intra-arterial malposition of a port catheter. A 66-year-old female patient was admitted to our division due to a port-a-catheter malposition. CT images showed an intrapulmonary localization of the port catheter, located in an apical pulmonary segmental artery in the right upper lobe. Urgent explantation of the port-a-cath was performed without complication, and the patient left our division on the fourth postoperative day. This extremely complicated case demonstrates the importance of accurate intra- and postoperative radiological imaging for rapid and distinct detection of perioperative complications after surgical implantation of port systems.
