Development of an ex vivo preclinical respiratory model of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis for aerosol regional studies.
Article in Scientific reports, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis is a progressive disease with unsatisfactory systemic treatments. Aerosol drug delivery to the lungs is expected to be an interesting route of administration. However, due to the alterations of lung compliance caused by fibrosis, local delivery remains challenging. This work aimed to develop a practical, relevant and ethically less restricted ex vivo respiratory model of fibrotic lung for regional aerosol deposition studies. This model is composed of an Ear-Nose-Throat replica connected to a sealed enclosure containing an ex vivo porcine respiratory tract, which was modified to mimic the mechanical properties of fibrotic lung parenchyma - i.e. reduced compliance. Passive respiratory mechanics were measured.
