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

Angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACE-i) are commonly used medications to treat hypertension and congestive heart failure. Angioedema is a well-established side effect of ACE-i and most commonly manifests as swelling of the mucosal and extra-mucosal soft tissues in the head and neck. CT with contrast is generally used to evaluate for airway compromise and to exclude other etiologies of edema. Herein we present five cases that illustrate the radiological findings specific to ACE-i-induced angioedema on enhanced CT scans.
