1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, and state and local health departments have begun an investigation into the lung injury attributed to the use of electronic cigarette (e-cigarette) or vaping products. A clinical case of a 24-year-old man who used e-cigarette products regularly and presented with shortness of breath, productive cough, chest pain, and fever for 1 week was discussed. Radiographic and CT findings in that patient were reviewed. Recent cases of e-cigarette-associated lung injury from the literature were summarized to continue the dialogue and encourage radiologists to research this relatively new and specific type of lung injury. © RSNA, 2019.
