Diffuse necrotizing pneumonia, cavitations and hemoptysis: A case of sweet syndrome.
Article in Respiratory medicine case reports, 2025. 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
A 33-year-old man presented with a 1-week history of odynophagia, fever, and dyspnea. Initial chest computed tomography (CT) revealed multiple bilateral consolidations predominantly in the lower lobes. Laboratory investigations revealed leukocytosis, while cultures remained negative and the patient was started on antibiotics for suspected community-acquired pneumonia. Despite this, his condition deteriorated, with follow-up CT showing necrotizing pneumonia and cavitations. He subsequently developed violaceous papular lesions on the upper extremities, and skin biopsy confirmed Sweet syndrome, characterized by dermal neutrophilic infiltration without leukocytoclastic vasculitis. Corticosteroid therapy was initiated; however, the patient succumbed to massive hemoptysis one month after admission. This case highlights the importance of considering systemic inflammatory conditions like Sweet syndrome in the differential diagnosis of culture-negative pneumonia.
