A Rare Case of Captopril-Induced Parotid Gland Enlargement.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
The use of captopril has been linked to scarce adverse events characterized by parotid glands enlargement. We report a case of captopril-induced parotid enlargement in a patient with uncontrolled hypertension. A 57-year-old male presented to the emergency department (ED) with an acute state of headache. The patient has a background of untreated hypertension for which he was managed in the emergency department (ED) by the administration of captopril 12.5 mg sublingually to control his blood pressure. Shortly after the drug administration, he started to experience bilateral painless enlargement of parotid glands that resolved a few hours after the drug was withdrawn.
