Noninvasive positive-pressure ventilation in pregnancy to treat acute pulmonary edema induced by tocolytic agents: a case report.
Article in Journal of medical case reports, 2021. 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
backgroundWe report a case of pulmonary edema induced by tocolytic agents that was successfully managed with noninvasive positive-pressure ventilation (NPPV) and resulted in extended gestation. CASE PRESENTATION: A 36-year-old Japanese pregnant woman received tocolytic therapy with ritodrine hydrochloride, magnesium sulfate, nifedipine, and betamethasone from 28 weeks of gestation. She developed respiratory failure. and her chest X-ray showed enlarged pulmonary vascular shadows. At 29 weeks and 1 day of gestation, she was diagnosed with pulmonary edema induced by tocolytic agents. Because respiratory failure worsened 2 days after ritodrine hydrochloride and magnesium sulfate were stopped, NPPV was initiated. Her respiratory status improved and she was weaned off of NPPV after 3 days. She underwent cesarean section because of breech presentation at 30 weeks and 0 days of gestation due to initiation of labor pains.
conclusionsNPPV can be safely administered in cases of tocolytic agent-induced pulmonary edema during pregnancy.
