Pericardial Fat Plombage for Secondary Pneumothorax Caused by Pulmonary Aspergilloma.
Article in Annals of thoracic surgery short 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
Surgical treatment of secondary pneumothorax caused by pulmonary aspergilloma often makes it difficult to close the fistula. We herein report a surgical case of pneumothorax in an 85-year-old man with a fungus ball in a cavity of the right lung S3. A fungus mass protruded into the thoracic cavity from the lung fistula, and the surrounding tissue was thickened by inflammatory changes. We tried to close the defect by filling it with pericardial fat tissue and suturing. After the operation, the air leak disappeared immediately, and there was no recurrence of pneumothorax. This method is an effective and practical treatment.
