Simultaneous bilateral spontaneous pneumothorax in a patient with anorexia nervosa.
Article in Respiratory medicine case reports, 2023. 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
Anorexia nervosa causes various complications accompanying weight loss and malnutrition. Although bilateral spontaneous pneumothorax (SBSP) is uncommon, caution is needed in anorexia nervosa because this complication can be fatal. We encountered a 17-year-old girl with SBSP from emphysematous pulmonary changes due to anorexia nervosa. She was hospitalized with SBSP during treatment for anorexia nervosa. Chest tube drainage was started on admission, but no improvement was achieved. Surgery was therefore performed. Lung lesions on surgical specimens demonstrated malnutrition-induced emphysematous changes, a risk factor for SBSP. Attention should be paid to the occurrence of SBSP during the clinical course of anorexia nervosa.
