Two cases of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis evaluated by dynamic digital radiography for diaphragmatic motion and disease progression.
Article in Respirology case reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Forced vital capacity has been utilized as a parameter of disease progression in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF); however, its measurement is difficult when patients do not understand or cooperate. Dynamic digital radiography (DDR) enables sequential chest X-ray imaging during breathing, with lower radiation doses compared to conventional fluoroscopy or computed tomography. There is accumulating evidence showing that parameters obtained from DDR, particularly those related to diaphragmatic dynamics, are correlated with pulmonary function parameters, and are useful for pathophysiological evaluation. We herein present two cases that suggest parameters obtained from DDR during supine normal tidal breathing may predict disease progression of IPF.
