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

Swyer-James-MacLeod syndrome (SJMS) is a rare condition characterized by unilateral pulmonary hyperlucency and vascular alterations secondary to post-infectious bronchiolitis obliterans. It is also an underdiagnosed disease due to the nonspecificity of its symptoms, which highlights the importance of complementary imaging studies for its identification. Although treatment is mostly conservative, in selected cases, surgical management can improve the prognosis and quality of life of patients. We present the case of an adult female with recurrent respiratory infections in childhood who had an incidental diagnosis of SJMS with pulmonary hypertension as a complication.
