A Comprehensive Review of Interstitial Lung Abnormalities.
Review in Respirology (Carlton, Vic.), 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
Interstitial lung abnormalities (ILAs) represent radiological entities that comprise changes compatible with an interstitial process, occurring in individuals not suspected to have interstitial lung disease (ILD). The prevalence of ILAs ranges from 2.5% to 16.7% in lung cancer screening and population-based cohorts. ILAs have consistently been associated with mortality. Risk factors include older age, smoking, and genetic polymorphisms such as MUC5B. Progression of ILAs occurs in 20%-76% of cases over 2-6 years of follow-up. The clinical approach to ILAs involves risk stratification based on radiological features, extent of involvement, and associated clinical and physiological findings. ILAs pose a significant challenge in distinguishing inconsequential radiological findings from early ILD. This review summarises the current understanding of ILAs, including prevalence, risk factors, progression, associated biomarkers, and clinical management strategies.
