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

Herein, we report a case of Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome (HPS) in which respiratory symptoms improved with pirfenidone treatment. A 43-year-old Japanese woman with oculocutaneous albinism presented with a cough and dyspnea. High-resolution computed tomography revealed areas of reticular and frosted lung opacities. The diagnosis of HPS was confirmed by a prolonged bleeding time and HPS1 gene mutation. Generally, there is no effective treatment for interstitial pneumonia associated with HPS except for lung transplantation. In the present case, the cough and dyspnea improved with pirfenidone administration. Therefore, clinicians should administer pirfenidone in challenging transplantation cases and during the waiting period for transplantation.
