Successful treatment of pulmonary injury after nitrogen oxide exposure with corticosteroid therapy: A case report and review of the literature.
Article in Respiratory medicine case reports, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Nitrogen oxides are representative chemicals of occupational and environmental exposure, which can lead to fatal pulmonary injury. These oxides are also known to cause delayed occurrence of bronchiolitis obliterans (BO). Herein, we report a case of nitrogen oxide-induced lung injury. A 50-year-old man developed pulmonary edema after nitric acid exposure. Hypoxemia and respiratory failure were immediately improved after introduction of corticosteroid pulse therapy with supplemental oxygen. This was followed by administration of oral prednisolone, and delayed BO did not develop. This case supports the therapeutic efficacy of corticosteroids against pulmonary injury and late-onset BO after nitrogen oxide exposure. KEY CLINICAL MESSAGE: Prolonged oral prednisolone might be a potential therapy to prevent delayed onset of bronchiolitis obliterans after nitric acid exposure.
