Bronchial mucoepidermoid carcinoma, recurrent asthmatic symptoms, and pneumonia presenting in pregnancy.
Article in Respirology case reports, 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
We report the case of a 37-year-old pregnant Japanese woman (34th week of gestation) with a left main bronchus mucoepidermoid carcinoma. She had left lower lung pneumonia episodes for eight weeks that had been associated with bronchial asthma. Bronchoscopy revealed a membranous endobronchial tumour obstructing most of the left main bronchus. We delivered the baby without any problems by caesarean section, followed by tumour cauterization using a rigid bronchoscope under general anaesthesia. After that, we performed a sleeve resection of the main left bronchus. At one-year follow-up, the patient was disease-free and her baby was growing well.
