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

An 83-year-old man with a history of interstitial lung disease (ILD) presented with a 1-week history of progressive dyspnea. Computed tomography of the chest revealed right lung-predominant, diffuse, ground glass opacities superimposed upon reticular opacities. Despite methylprednisolone pulse therapy under a diagnosis of acute exacerbation (AE) of ILD, lung involvement and renal dysfunction worsened and disseminated intravascular coagulation developed. The patient died on day 5 of hospitalization. Pathological examination at autopsy revealed diffuse alveolar hemorrhage (DAH) superimposed upon organizing diffuse alveolar damage and usual interstitial pneumonia. We reached a final diagnosis of DAH-predominant AE of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). Abundant expression of the oxidative stress marker hemeoxygenase-1 (HO-1) was observed in alveolar macrophages. These suggest that HO-1 expression in the lungs may offer a useful biomarker for this atypical histological subtype of AE of IPF.
