1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundAcute fibrinous and organizing pneumonia (AFOP) is a rare histological interstitial pneumonia pattern characterized by patches of "fibrin balls" distributed within the alveoli and organizing pneumonia. Currently, there is no consensus on the diagnosis and treatment of this disease.

methodsWe present the case of a 44-year-old male with AFOP secondary to Mycobacterium tuberculosis. We have further reviewed organizing pneumonia (OP) and AFOP caused by tuberculosis.

conclusionTuberculosis secondary to OP or AFOP is rare and challenging to diagnose. We need to constantly adjust the treatment plan based on the patient's symptoms, test results, and response to treatment in order to arrive at an accurate diagnosis and maximize treatment efficacy.
