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

Diffuse alveolar hemorrhage (DAH) in cardiac diseases results from pulmonary capillary stress failure due to pulmonary venous hypertension. The most common cardiac causes of DAH are heart failure and mitral valvular disease. Patients typically manifest with hemoptysis, radiologic chest abnormalities, and anemia. The chest infiltrates are generally bilateral, similar to pulmonary edema. Rarely, the chest infiltrates can be unilateral, mimicking an infectious etiology. We present the case of an 88-year-old female with critical aortic stenosis, who presented with shortness of breath, unilateral right lung infiltrates, and mild leukocytosis. The patient was misdiagnosed with pneumonia as pulmonary edema or DAH was expected to be a bilateral finding on chest imaging. The patient deteriorated and DAH was eventually diagnosed by bronchoscopy.
