Sertraline-Induced Acute Eosinophilic Pneumonia.
Article in Cureus, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Acute eosinophilic pneumonia (AEP) is a rare but severe respiratory syndrome characterized by fever, hypoxemic respiratory failure, diffuse pulmonary infiltrates, and pulmonary eosinophilia. The most common cause of AEP is idiopathic, but it can be associated with antidepressant medications like sertraline. A 76-year-old female presented to our ED with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure. She had no history of smoking or prior lung disease. She did not improve after treatment with broad spectrum antibiotics so a trial of corticosteroids was initiated. Her work-up was negative for infectious or collagen vascular causes of the respiratory failure. She was diagnosed with AEP associated with sertraline. Her condition improved with corticosteroid therapy after discontinuation of sertraline. This case report highlights AEP as a possible adverse reaction of sertraline. Prompt discontinuation of the offending drug is necessary for early recovery.
