Management of the Diagnosis and Treatment of Pneumonia in an Aging Society.
Review in Internal medicine (Tokyo, Japan), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
The diagnosis of pneumonia is based on respiratory and systemic symptoms, blood test findings, chest radiographic findings, and the condition of the patient. Physicians in aging or aged societies such as Japan carefully evaluate the comprehensive situation of each pneumonia patient with adequate evaluation and treatment according to "the Japanese Respiratory Society (JRS) guidelines for the management of pneumonia in adults in 2024." These guidelines categorize pneumonia into three types: community-acquired, nursing- and healthcare-associated, and hospital-acquired. The selection of treatment settings and empirical antimicrobials for pneumonia depends on pneumonia classification, severity, and risk factors for potential drug-resistant bacteria, as outlined in the JRS guidelines. This review concisely describes the historical evolution of the diagnosis and treatment of pneumonia in elderly societies, including aspiration pneumonia, from multiple perspectives. In addition, it explores the differential diagnoses when antimicrobial treatment for pneumonia is ineffective, highlighting key aspects through chest radiography and computed tomography.
