Proposed Clinical Algorithm for Pleuroparenchymal Fibroelastosis (PPFE).
Review in Journal of clinical medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
Pleuroparenchymal fibroelastosis (PPFE) is characterized by fibrosis involving the pleura and subpleural lung parenchyma, predominantly in the upper lobes. As PPFE appears to occur in patients with heterogeneous etiologies, the disease course is thus also heterogenous, with some patients showing rapid progression while others have slow progression. Therefore, it is very difficult to predict prognosis with PPFE. Needless to say, this problematic matter has influenced the treatment strategy of PPFE patients. In fact, until now no evidence has been shown for use in creating an appropriate management algorithm for PPFE. We speculate that "uncoordinated breathing" is the most important reason for dyspnea in PPFE patients. Because monitoring of physique and not just pulmonary function and radiological evaluation is also very important, particularly in PPFE patients, this review focused on the characteristics of PPFE through an overview of previous studies in this field, and we proposed an algorithm as precision medicine based on the current evidence. Multiple views by the pulmonologist are needed to standardize a clinical algorithm that is necessary to correctly assess PPFE patients under the premise of maintenance of physique by providing appropriate nutritional care and pulmonary rehabilitation.
