Loeffler's syndrome mimicking lung tumor and pneumonia in a child: A case report.
Article in Respiratory medicine case reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Loeffler's syndrome is a rare and benign eosinophilic pneumonia which is commonly transient and self-limiting. Herein we report a 12-year-old boy who presented with dry cough, hemoptysis, chest pain, no fever and diminished breath sounds on the right lung. Chest imaging showed a consolidation lesion with bronchograms in the right upper and middle lobes, accompanied by a right free-flowing pleural effusion. Laboratory studies showed elevated C-reactive protein levels, and an eosinophil count of 13.7%. A lung biopsy was performed to diagnose the Loeffler's syndrome. The patient's condition was improving significantly with antibiotic therapy and is now followed up closely.
