An Acute Case of Exogenous Lipoid Pneumonia Which Developed in Tent Sauna.
Article 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 3 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 aspiration or inhalation of lipid substances can cause lung injury, including chemical pneumonitis and exogenous lipoid pneumonia. We herein report a case of acute lung injury caused by kerosene inhalation in a tent sauna. A patient developed dyspnea with respiratory failure two hours after igniting a wood-burning stove with kerosene. High-resolution computed tomography revealed widespread ground-glass opacities, and bronchoalveolar lavage revealed lipid-laden macrophages. Systemic corticosteroid treatment led to a rapid improvement. Although kerosene is generally safe at room temperature, its vaporization in high-temperature environments may increase the risk of lung injury through inhalation.
