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

A 40-year-old female who presented with "hemoptysis for 3 days" was referred to our hospital due to suspected bronchial artery malformation. Physical examination revealed no obvious abnormalities. Aortic CT angiography with three-dimensional reconstruction showed the descending aorta had an abnormal branch supplying the lower lateral segment of the left lung. Left pulmonary artery angiography under DSA showed poor filling of the lower lateral segment artery of the left lung, and aortography revealed an abnormal branch originating from the lower segment of the thoracic aorta supplying the left lower lateral segment. The diagnosis of anomalous systemic artery supply to the lower lateral segment of the left lung was confirmed. After angiography, a microcatheter was used to select the abnormal vessel, and coils were placed to embolize the abnormal artery. Re-angiography after embolization showed that the distal vessel disappeared. The patient had no obvious discomfort or complications during or after the procedure. Two months later, contrast-enhanced CT scan showed that the shadow of the left lower lobe had significantly absorbed, the coils were in place as expected, and the abnormal blood vessel was blocked well.
