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 42-year-old Japanese man with hereditary angioedema suffered accidental trauma to his jaw in Shizuoka Prefecture, Japan, which gradually caused facial edema. Since plasma-derived human C1 inhibitor (pdh C1-INH) was unavailable, he had to be transferred to Juntendo University Hospital in Tokyo. Due to his severe edema, he suffered asphyxiation leading to cardiopulmonary arrest upon arrival. The patient was resuscitated and promptly treated with pdh C1-INH. In Japan, the self-administration of pdh C1-INH is not allowed, and every prefecture does not always possess stocks of pdh C1-INH. This case emphasizes the need for urgent improvements in treatment availability in Japan.
