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

In this article, we report a case with pleuroparenchymal fibroelastosis (PPFE) following hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) that developed acute respiratory failure with new bilateral ground glass opacity, which could not be explained by either a pulmonary infection, drug toxicity or extraparenchymal causes. Although combination therapy with multiple immunosuppressants was transiently effective, the patient died from a recurrent exacerbation. Autopsied lungs demonstrated diffuse alveolar damage superimposed on PPFE. There was no evidence of any coexisting interstitial pneumonia with the usual interstitial pneumonia (UIP) pattern. Our case suggests that acute exacerbation can occur in patients with post-HSCT PPFE, even when a coexisting UIP pattern is absent.
