Desquamative interstitial pneumonia with clinical, radiological and histologic correlation.
Article in Radiology case reports, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Respiratory bronchiolitis-associated interstitial lung disease (ILD), desquamative interstitial pneumonia (DIP), and pulmonary Langerhans cell histiocytosis are entities of smoking-related ILD. While clinically regarded as 2 separate forms of idiopathic interstitial pneumonia, DIP, and respiratory bronchiolitis-associated ILD are thought to be representing ends of a continuous spectrum of disease that primarily affects tobacco smokers. This case report presents a 53-year-old female patient who has 58 pack-year smoking history who has been experiencing a dry cough and epigastric pains for 2 years. Open-lung biopsy is performed and histopathology indicated smoking-related interstitial fibrosis. The patient did not stop smoking, which after a year leads to significant clinical deterioration with a notable decrease in diffusion for carbon monoxide capacity. Upon smoking cessation and treatment with corticosteroids, a significant clinical improvement is achieved. In smokers complaining of cough and reduced exercise tolerance and in whom evidence of interstitial fibrosis is demonstrated radiologically, DIP should be considered as a differential diagnosis. Smoking is the exclusive etiologic factor of pathogenesis of DIP.
