Practical Imaging Interpretation in Patients Suspected of Having Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis: Official Recommendations from the Radiology Working Group of the Pulmonary Fibrosis Foundation.
Review in Radiology. Cardiothoracic imaging, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 21 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
Imaging serves a key role in the diagnosis of patients suspected of having idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). Accurate pattern classification at thin-section chest CT is a key step in multidisciplinary discussions, guiding the need for surgical lung biopsy and determining available pharmacologic therapies. The recent approval of new treatments for fibrosing lung disease has made it more critical than ever for radiologists to facilitate accurate and early diagnosis of IPF. This document was developed by the Radiology Working Group of the Pulmonary Fibrosis Foundation with the goal of providing a practical guide for radiologists. In this review, the critical imaging patterns of IPF, pitfalls in imaging classifications, confounding imaging findings with other fibrotic lung diseases, and reporting standards for cases of lung fibrosis will be discussed.
