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

backgroundFlash pulmonary edema is a medical emergency in which immediate recognition can be life-saving, especially when patients do not have typical clinical manifestations. CASE PRESENTATION: Herein, we report the case of a 56-year-old man who was admitted to the hospital due to paroxysmal palpitations for one week. His pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) level and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) were normal, and he had no obvious symptoms of dyspnea. However, a CT scan of the chest indicated flash pulmonary edema. Through anti-heart failure treatment, the lung lesions improved.

resultsThe patient was diagnosed with HFpEF caused by paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia. The abnormal imaging manifestations in the lung were due to flash pulmonary edema, which was caused by acute heart failure.

conclusionFlash pulmonary edema is a medical emergency in which immediate recognition can be life-saving, especially when patients do not have typical clinical manifestations.
