[Pulmonary lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM)].
Review in Der Pathologe, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM) is a rare lung disease that mostly occurs in female patients. A total of 200-400 people are assumed to be infected in Germany. A sporadic form and a form associated with the tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) can be separated. Mutations of the TSC‑1 and TSC‑2 genes are relevant. Morphologically, pulmonary multicysts and marginal micronodal proliferations of LAM cells are characteristic. Combinations with renal angiomyolipoma are typical and, in cases with TSC glioma, facial angiofibroma and ungual fibroma are seen. Prognosis is favorable (10-year survival: 80%) and with the use of mTORC1 inhibitors it could be improved. Lung transplantation can be considered in some cases.
