The lung in liver disease: old problem, new concepts.
Article in Transactions of the American Clinical and Climatological Association, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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
Liver dysfunction has been recognized to influence the lung in many different clinical situations, although the mechanisms for these effects are not well understood. One increasingly recognized interaction, the hepatopulmonary syndrome (HPS) occurs in the context of cirrhosis and results when alveolar microvascular dilation causes arterial gas exchange abnormalities and hypoxemia. HPS occurs in up to 30% of patients with cirrhosis and significantly increases mortality in affected patients. Currently, liver transplantation is the only curative therapy. Experimental biliary cirrhosis induced by common bile duct ligation (CBDL) in the rat reproduces the pulmonary vascular and gas exchange abnormalities of human HPS and has been contrasted with other experimental models of cirrhosis in which HPS does not develop. Microvascular dilation, intravascular monocyte infiltration, and angiogenesis in the lung have been identified as pathologic features that drive gas exchange abnormalities in experimental HPS. Our recent studies have identified biliary epithelium and activation and interaction between the endothelin-1 (ET-1)/endothelial endothelin B (ETB) receptor and CX3CL1/CX3CR1 pathways as important mechanisms for the observed pathologic events. These studies define novel interactions between the lung and liver in cirrhosis and may lead to effective medical therapies.
