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

rationaleBronchial artery aneurysm (BAA) is a rare condition, but it can be life-threatening if the aneurysm ruptures. While endovascular therapy is the primary treatment, the selection of embolic material is limited by the tortuous and short aneurysm neck. PATIENT CONCERNS: We report a huge, suspected ruptured BAA was unexpectedly detected in a 69-year-old man during a routine medical examination. DIAGNOSES: Enhanced chest computed tomography angiography and selective bronchial arteriography both revealed that the BAA was located at the proximal portion of the left bronchial artery It was characterized by a large aneurysm sac and a short, irregularly dilated aneurysm neck.

interventionsWe successfully occluded the huge BAA using a single amplatzer vascular plug. OUTCOMES: The 6-month computed tomography angiography follow-up scan showed no signs of aneurysm recurrence. LESSONS: Transcatheter embolization utilizing a single amplatzer vascular plug has proven to be an effective and cost-efficient treatment for BAAs that are characterized by a large aneurysm sac and a short, tortuous, irregularly dilated aneurysm neck.
