Autoimmune Pulmonary Alveolar Proteinosis Complicated by Myelodysplastic Syndrome.
Article in Internal medicine (Tokyo, Japan), 2024. 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
Pulmonary alveolar proteinosis (PAP) is characterized by an abnormal surfactant accumulation in peripheral air spaces. Autoimmune PAP (APAP) results from macrophage dysfunction caused by anti-granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) autoantibodies, and the presence of antibodies more than the cutoff value is specific for APAP. In contrast, secondary PAP (SPAP) does not require anti-GM-CSF autoantibodies and is complicated by other diseases, including myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). A 73-year-old man with anemia and thrombocytopenia was diagnosed with APAP and MDS simultaneously. The measurement of serum anti-GM-CSF autoantibodies is important for the correct diagnosis and management of PAP, even with an established diagnosis of underlying SPAP-suggestive disease.
