Recurrent Pneumonia? A Case of Availability Bias and Anchoring.
Article in Cureus, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Invasive mucinous adenocarcinoma is a multi-centric adenocarcinoma that accounts for less than 5% of all lung cancer diagnoses. The most common presenting symptoms (cough, sputum production, and chest pain) in conjunction with its radiographic findings (patchy, multi-lobar infiltrates) make invasive mucinous adenocarcinoma challenging to distinguish from both infectious and inflammatory pneumonia. However, due to its aggressive nature, invasive mucinous adenocarcinoma should be considered if a presumed case of pneumonia lacks symptoms of infection (e.g., fever, leukocytosis) and/or does not respond to antibiotics. We report the case of a 75-year-old male who was admitted in the setting of a presumed case of recurrent pneumonia, which had failed to respond to prior antibiotic therapy. Further workup, including trans-bronchial biopsy, confirmed mucinous adenocarcinoma with a lepidic pattern. This case highlights the importance of establishing a broad differential in the setting of unresolved pneumonia following appropriate antibiotic coverage.
