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

An asymptomatic patient was incidentally found to have a markedly dilated right pulmonary artery A7 (13 mm in diameter) on contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) of the chest. Intra-procedural CT aortography revealed that a right bronchial artery arising from the aorta and an ectopic right bronchial artery originating from the right thyrocervical trunk were dilated and tortuous, and communicated with right pulmonary artery A7. A bronchial artery aneurysm was also identified. A diagnosis of racemose hemangioma of the right bronchial artery was made, and coil embolization of the 2 bronchial arteries was performed. Follow-up contrast-enhanced CT at 2 years and 3 months after embolization showed that the dilated pulmonary artery had reduced to 7 mm in diameter. We believe that active therapeutic intervention is important to prevent potentially fatal complications such as aneurysm rupture.
