Congenital pulmonary airway malformation (CPAM): A case report and review of the literature.
Article in Radiology case reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 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
Congenital pulmonary airway malformation (CPAM) is a rare congenital dysplastic malformation characterized by failure of bronchial development and localized glandular overgrowth. Previously known as Congenital Cystic Adenoid Malformation (CCAM), CPAM is classified into 5 types, from type 0 to type IV, depending upon the origin of pulmonary areas of the lung, cyst size, and cyst appearance. CPAM is a rare congenital anomaly typically diagnosed prenatally in ultrasound. However, few cases are diagnosed in childhood and even fewer in adulthood. CPAM can be differentiated from pulmonary sequestration based on the origin of the arterial supply; the former has its arterial supply from the pulmonary artery, whereas pulmonary sequestration has its arterial supply from the systemic circulation. Another differential diagnosis of CPAM includes congenital bronchogenic cyst, congenital lobar emphysema, pleuropulmonary blastoma, congenital cystic bronchiectasis, and congenital diaphragmatic hernia. The most common presentation is recurrent chest infection and chest pain, whereas other presentation includes pneumothorax and hemoptysis. Here, we present a case of a 6-year-old child with recurrent episodes of fever and cough diagnosed as a type II CPAM based on computed tomography findings.
