Tracheobronchopathia Osteochondroplastica: A Rare, Underrecognized Entity.
Article in Cureus, 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
Tracheobronchopathia Osteochondroplastica (TO) is an extremely rare condition characterized by the presence of nodules made of bone and cartilage within the submucosa of the tracheobronchial wall. These protuberant nodules inside the trachea and bronchi can lead to airway obstruction, resulting in patients who experience recurrent respiratory systems and infections. The exact etiology is unknown. The mean age of diagnosis is in the 5th - 6th decades of life. TO is often confused with other diagnoses, especially asthma. We report a 41-year-old female who presented with intermittent exertional dyspnea for 10 years. Workups, including pulmonary function test, CT chest, and most importantly, flexible bronchoscopy, aided in the appropriate diagnosis. The unique feature observed during bronchoscopy is the sparing of the posterior wall of the trachea and bronchi.
