Tracheal Mucoepidermoid Carcinoma Mimicking Deteriorated Bronchial Asthma during Pregnancy.
Article in Case reports in obstetrics and gynecology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Primary bronchial tumors are extremely rare. However, symptoms, such as coughing and wheezing, are not specific to this disease, and primary bronchial tumors are often misdiagnosed as bronchial asthma. This report describes the case of a pregnant patient with a bronchial tumor that mimicked deteriorating bronchial asthma. A 37-year-old female patient suffered from repeated episodes of pneumonia since 26 weeks of gestation. Despite treatment, she suffered from another episode of pneumonia at 28 weeks of gestation. This was considered as deteriorating asthma. Bronchoscopy performed at 34 weeks of gestation showed a tumor in the left main lung bronchus, obstructing nearly 100% of the trachea. After cesarean delivery at 34 weeks, she underwent endoscopic bronchial tumor resection. Because of recurrent bronchial obstruction and the possibility of malignant disease, subsequent left main lung bronchial resection and bronchoplasty were performed. The pathological diagnosis was low-grade mucoepidermoid carcinoma. In conclusion, if pneumonia develops repeatedly during pregnancy, the possibility of bronchial tumor should be considered.
