Spontaneous Pneumomediastinum in Marijuana Users.
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
This article presents two individuals with different clinical presentations who experienced spontaneous pneumomediastinum following the chronic use of marijuana. Pneumomediastinum has been associated with marijuana use due to the prolonged inhalation and breath-holding mechanisms employed during consumption. The first case involves a 24-year-old woman with a history of anxiety and chronic marijuana use, who presented to the emergency department with atypical chest pain and shortness of breath. The second case involves a 21-year-old man with no previous medical history, who experienced acute chest pain after smoking marijuana. Both individuals exhibited signs of pneumomediastinum on imaging studies and were treated with oxygen therapy and analgesics. The cases emphasize the importance of considering pneumomediastinum in patients with atypical chest pain, particularly in chronic cannabis users.
