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

Kartagener syndrome, a clinical variant of primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD), is a rare autosomal recessive genetic disorder caused by defective motility of cilia lining the respiratory tract, fallopian tubes, and middle ear. This results in impaired mucociliary clearance and leads to recurrent upper and lower respiratory tract infections, chronic sinusitis, otitis media, and bronchiectasis. We report a case of a 36-year-old woman with longstanding recurrent sinopulmonary infections, productive cough, hemoptysis, and dyspnea, who was ultimately diagnosed with left lower lobe bronchiectasis and situs inversus totalis. Bronchoscopy with bronchoalveolar lavage grew
