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

Pulmonary tumoral thrombotic microangiopathy (PTTM) is a rare but fatal complication in patients with cancer that causes death due to sudden respiratory distress, pulmonary hypertension, and right ventricular dysfunction. Early diagnosis and intensive treatment are important for improving patient prognosis. Herein, we describe the clinical and CT findings of 10 patients who were clinically diagnosed with PTTM at our hospital over the past 18 years. In patients with cancer complaining of dyspnea and hypoxia, CT findings such as right ventricular and pulmonary artery dilatation, perivascular or subpleural ground-glass opacity or consolidation, micronodules with a ground-glass halo, peripheral pulmonary vessel dilatation, and interlobular septal thickening may suggest PTTM.
