Child Interstitial Lung Disease in an Infant with Surfactant Protein C Dysfunction due to c.202G>T Variant (p.V68F).
Article in Lung, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
For newborns suspected having childhood interstitial lung disease (ChILD), the sequencing of genes encoding surfactant proteins is recommended. However, it is still difficult to interpret the clinical significance of those variants found. We report a full-term born female infant who presented with respiratory distress and failure to thrive at 2 months of age and both imaging and lung biopsy were consistent with ChILD. Her genetic test was initially reported as a variant of unknown significance in surfactant protein C (c.202G > T, p.V68F), which was modified later as likely pathogenic after reviewing a report of the same variant as causing ChILD. The infant was placed on noninvasive ventilation and treated with IV Methylprednisolone, Hydroxychloroquine, and Azithromycin but did not show significant clinical and radiological improvement underwent tracheostomy and is awaiting lung transplantation at 8 months of age. The challenges interpreting the genetic results are discussed.
