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

Granuloma formation is generally correlated with infection. Pulmonary granulomas caused by foreign bodies aspiration are uncommon. The clinical and radiologic features of such cases often lack specificity, which makes it difficult to distinguish from malignancy. Aspiration is usually not considered in the differential diagnosis of patients presenting with mass-like abnormalities on chest imaging. Occult aspiration history, diverse clinical manifestations, atypical imaging findings, and limited availability of pathogen detection techniques make the precise diagnosis a substantial challenge. Herein, we describe an older patient presenting with chest pain and worrisome lung masses/nodules that proved to be pulmonary granulomas caused by foreign matters aspiration. In addition, the patient developed Mendelson syndrome due to acute macroaspiration. Lung tissue metagenomics next-generation sequencing (mNGS) revealed
