Pulmonary laceration.
Article in Trauma case reports, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 5 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
introductionPulmonary laceration is usually caused by penetrating trauma but it can also be found in non-penetrating trauma. It usually resolves quickly and with few problems if proper and timely treatment is given for which an adequate diagnosis is mandatory. In some cases it may require a surgical approach. CASE: A 21 year-old male was admitted after a car accident with multiple trauma lesions. He presented with tachycardia and tachypnea. Thorax CT revealed evident pulmonary lacerations. After placing two chest tubes he evolved favorably.
conclusionSince we can usually find different kinds of injuries in multiple trauma, it is important to distinguish pulmonary lacerations from other types of lesions such as pneumothorax or concussions taking special consideration for mechanically ventilated patients and possible associated complications.
