IgG4-related lung disease with pulmonary lesions and recurrent pleural effusion: A case of report.
Article in Radiology 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
We report a rare case of IgG4-related lung disease (RLD) with pulmonary lesions and recurrent pleural effusion to improve the diagnosis and treatment of this disease. A 60-year-old man was admitted to hospital for cough and dyspnea. CT scan showed a right lower lobe intrapulmonary mass with unilateral right-sided pleural effusion. Histology revealed no malignant findings. After 1 year, the patient re-admitted to our hospital with high serum level of IgG4 and IgE concentrations. CT scan demonstrated partial resolution of intrapulmonary mass and right-sided pleural effusion, while concurrently revealing interval development of substantial left-sided pleural effusion. The patient was diagnosed with IgG4-RLD by biopsy finally. This is a first case report of IgG4-RLD with intrapulmonary lesions accompanied by asynchronous, rapidly accumulating bilateral pleural effusions. Clinicians should consider the possibility of IgG4-RLD with intrapulmonary lesions accompanied by asynchronous, rapidly growing bilateral pleural effusion, particularly after rigorously excluding common diseases.
