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

Eosinophilic pneumonia is a known side effect of dupilumab; however, diffuse alveolar hemorrhage has not yet been reported in association with dupilumab. We herein report a case of diffuse alveolar hemorrhage caused by dupilumab. A 57-year-old man with severe asthma was unable to discontinue oral steroids and thus was prescribed dupilumab. The patient was admitted to the hospital four weeks after treatment because of suspected eosinophilic pneumonia. Bronchoscopy revealed diffuse alveolar hemorrhage characterized by hemosiderin-phagocytic macrophages in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid without eosinophils. The steroid dosage improved the respiratory status and resolved the infiltrate shadow. Dupilumab may thus cause diffuse alveolar hemorrhage, which can be differentiated using bronchoscopy.
