A Case of Pneumothorax Secondary to Marijuana Use Disorder.
Article in Cureus, 2022. 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
In recent decades, the general tendency has switched from the use of tobacco products to the inhalation of marijuana with or without the addition of tobacco. The majority of existing research on marijuana use focuses on its euphoric effects. Pneumothorax, pneumomediastinum, and subcutaneous emphysema are infrequently described in the medical literature in association with cannabis use. It is a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge because of its infrequency of occurrence. We see a huge diversity of multisystem involvement linked with marijuana smoking, and physicians should be aware of this uncommon clinical presentation, which might be observed more often because of the recent upsurge in its consumption. We describe a case of a 20-year-old male with a chronic history of marijuana use disorder who was found to have non-tension type pneumothorax, pneumomediastinum, and subcutaneous emphysema on chest imaging. The patient was managed conservatively and did not require any surgical intervention.
