Late diagnosis of generalized lymphangiomatosis in a woman presenting with respiratory distress.
Article in Radiology case reports, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Generalized lymphangiomatosis (GLA) is a rare lymphatic abnormality, mostly affects children and young individuals and can be a diagnostic challenge because of wide spectrum of clinical manifestations. A 26-year-old woman presented to the emergency department of our institution with respiratory distress and hypoxia. The patient reported similar episodes for the past 10 years without a definite diagnosis. The imaging study demonstrated findings suggestive of GLA with pulmonary, retroperitoneal and osseous involvements which was confirmed on pathological studies from a lung biopsy. A concise review of the clinical, imaging and pathological findings of GLA is provided in this study. A comprehensive history and physical examination, laboratory and pathological work up and imaging is required to make the diagnosis of GLA. The characteristic imaging findings play an essential role to rule out other possible diagnoses and raise the possibility of GLA.
