Lymphangioleiomyomatosis: an explosive presentation of a rare disease.
Article in Oxford medical case reports, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM) is a rare cystic lung disease, commonly affecting women in the reproductive age group. Exacerbation of pre-existing disease is common during pregnancy likely due to the up-regulation of estrogen and progesterone receptors present within the proliferating smooth muscle cells. This case highlights a dramatic presentation of LAM for the first time in pregnancy, its rapid progression during gestation, and a partial resolution with delivery. The unusual radiographic imaging in this patient, lacked the characteristic cystic lesions commonly associated with LAM, but instead demonstrated a dense interstitial pattern with micronodular expansion of the interlobular septa suggesting severe lymphatic obstruction.
