Smoke inhalation injury: a narrative review.
Review in Mediastinum (Hong Kong, China), 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Burn Units frequently provide care to patients who have burn injuries and concomitant smoke inhalation injury. Inhalation damage is a complex multifaceted lung and systemic disease process, and the leading cause of mortality and morbidity in victims of fire tragedies. The degree of airway injury depends on the composition of smoke and the duration of smoke exposure. The prevalence of inhalation damage and related mortality rates among fire victims is high all over the world. This article presents the potential clinical impacts of this syndrome and the most important factors to consider when examining patients that have survived the scene of an accident who require hospital admission. Anatomically, injuries are divided into three classes: (I) heat injury which is restricted to upper airway; (II) local chemical irritation throughout the respiratory tract and (III) systemic toxicity as may occur with inhalation of carbon monoxide or cyanide. Treatment options between these three subtypes differ based on the pathophysiologic changes that each one elicits. Supportive respiratory care remains essential in managing inhalation injury. In addition, we have also reviewed current treatment strategies and future lines of research in this field. These advances provide hope for reversal of specific mechanisms of morbidity and improvement in outcomes.
