Adult pulmonary Langerhans cell histiocytosis revealed by central diabetes insipidus: A case report and literature review.
Article in Molecular and clinical oncology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) is a rare systemic and heterogeneous disease secondary to proliferation and diffuse infiltration of immature CD1a-positive dendritic cells, also known as Langerhans cells. LCH affects predominantly paediatric patients and is rarely diagnosed in adulthood. Despite its worldwide prevalence, most reported cases are found in the Japanese population. There is no consensus regarding treatment strategy due to the low incidence of this disease and the diversity of symptoms that appear. An integrative literature review was conducted based on the PubMed database using MeSH terms 'Langerhans', 'histiocytosis' and 'adult'. The present report describes a case of a successfully treated LCH-induced central diabetes insipidus (uncommon presentation in adult patients) as well as an updated review of current evidence published on this matter.
