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

Reexpansion pulmonary edema is a rare complication of thoracocentesis with mortality rates as high as 20%. It presents with tachycardia, hypotension, and hypoxemia within hours after thoracocentesis. The exact pathophysiology is not known. The risk factors for the same should be carefully assessed and considered before chest tube drainage. The treatment is supportive. A case of ipsilateral reexpansion pulmonary edema after chest tube drainage of spontaneous pneumothorax is described and illustrated. He was managed with noninvasive ventilation, inotropes, and other supportive treatment and recovered completely.
