Lethal manifestations of angioedema.
Article in Forensic science, medicine, and pathology, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
An 86-year-old woman with a history of angioedema was found dead at her home address. She had recently complained of a swollen tongue. At autopsy the tongue was grossly edematous, protruding from the mouth. There was also marked edema of the tonsillar fossae, epiglottis and glottic inlet, causing critical obstruction. Histology of the tongue and upper airway demonstrated marked submucosal edema. Death was attributed to upper airway obstruction due to angioedema of the tongue, oropharynx and glottic inlet. Angioedema is characterized by localized non-pitting edema of the deep dermis and subcutaneous/submucosal tissues. It may be acute or chronic, acquired or inherited. Sudden death may result from critical airway occlusion, although both stroke and ischemic heart disease are known to occur. Post mortem genetic testing for hereditary variants can be conducted for SERPING1 gene and F12 gene/THR328 mutations.
