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

E-cigarette or vaping use-associated lung injury (EVALI) remains a major concern due to ongoing use of nicotine and/or cannabis-containing products and resulting acute lung injury. There are few published reports describing the clinical features, comorbidities, severity of disease, and outcomes of treatment in adolescents. This report describes the experience of a single tertiary care children's hospital in the Delaware Valley and reviews data from all patients diagnosed with EVALI in the emergency department and inpatient setting from July 2019 to June 2021 at the Nemours Children's Hospital in Wilmington, Delaware. Demographic, clinical, therapeutic, diagnostic features, and outcomes are presented. Abstinence and steroids improved outcomes in our population. Obtaining a vaping history, negative infectious testing, elevated inflammatory markers, and characteristic computed tomography findings were key to making the diagnosis of EVALI.
