1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Bronchoscopic device closure plays an important role in the nonsurgical management of bronchopleural fistulae. Herein, we describe the first Indian report of the use of Amplatzer VSD occluder device for the management of a large bronchopleural fistula using an innovative technique in which a snare was passed through the working channel of a flexible bronchoscope to grasp the Amplatzer VSD occluder device which was anchored parallel to the bronchoscope and then maneuvered into the fistula.
