Diaphragm Function in Health and Disease.
Review in Advances in experimental medicine and biology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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 diaphragm is the thin dome-shaped muscle that separates the thoracic cavity from the abdominal contents. Functionally, the diaphragm is the principal inspiratory muscle in humans and other mammals, and importantly, a healthy diaphragm is essential to achieve adequate pulmonary ventilation and gas exchange across the blood/gas interface. In addition to pulmonary gas exchange, the diaphragm also contributes to important non-breathing functions such coughing and sneezing. Compared to locomotor muscles, the diaphragm is anatomically unique and is the only skeletal muscle that is chronically active. This chapter provides a summary of diaphragm structure and function and examines the plasticity of diaphragm muscle fibers in response to both increased and decreased contractile activity. The impact of aging and chronic diseases on diaphragmatic function is also considered. The chapter concludes with a detailed discussion of the important clinical problem of ventilator-induced diaphragm dysfunction.
