Hashimoto's thyroiditis-induced cryptogenic organizing pneumonia: A case report.
Article in Experimental and therapeutic medicine, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
A 49-year-old female patient developed chest tightness and shortness of breath without apparent cause and presented to a local hospital. Chest radiography indicated increased thickening of the lung texture, increased multiple patchy densities in the lower lobes of the bilateral lungs and a slightly enlarged thyroid. The patient was treated for pulmonary infection with antibiotics but the symptoms persisted. A repeated CT scan revealed ground-glass attenuation of the bilateral lungs with multiple flaky exudates and visible bronchogenic signs. The symptoms did not improve after broadening anti-microbial coverage. Bronchoscopy and biopsy confirmed cryptogenic organizing pneumonia (COP). Thyroid ultrasound and thyroid function tests jointly confirmed the diagnosis of Hashimoto's thyroiditis (HT). After receiving corticosteroid treatment, the patient's condition improved and she was discharged. This case demonstrates that COP may present in combination with Hashimoto's thyroiditis (HT) and may possibly even be caused by HT. Early confirmation of diagnosis and treatment will help to improve the prognosis of such patients.
