Dyspnea Due to Laryngeal Cicatricial Pemphigoid: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Cicatricial pemphigoid (CP) is a rare, chronic, vesiculobullous disease characteristically affecting the mucous membranes and healing with cicatrization. Laryngeal involvement is rare and leads to airway stenosis. We present a 74-year-old Caucasian woman with CP, affecting the oral cavity, esophagus, lower eyelids, and larynx. Regardless of regular treatment with hydrocortisone and azathioprine, she developed bilateral cicatrization of the aryepiglottic folds and ovoid stenosis of the laryngeal introitus, leading to dyspnea. To avoid tracheostomy, we were able to utilize infraglottic high-frequency jet ventilation under total intravenous anesthesia to perform a CO2 laser supraglottoplasty with sectioning of the aryepiglottic folds. Post-operatively, her dyspnea at rest resolved; there was no progression at the six- and 12-month follow-up, and she was satisfied with the result.
