Chloramine/Chlorine Injury Treated with Noninvasive Positive Pressure Ventilation: A Report of Two Cases.
Article in Clinical practice and cases in emergency medicine, 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
introductionChlorine and chloramine gases are pulmonary irritants that can cause pulmonary edema and acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). We present two cases that show effective treatment with noninvasive positive pressure ventilation (NIPPV). CASE REPORTS: Case 1. A 9-year-old male developed chloramine pneumonitis and ARDS with hypoxia to 78% on room air after urinating in a bucket of sodium hypochlorite. He was placed on NIPPV with improvement in symptoms and discharged on day four. CASE 2: A 58-year-old male developed chlorine gas pneumonitis with hypoxia to 85% on room air. Point-of-care ultrasound of this patient demonstrated greater than three B-lines in bilateral lower lung fields, which resolved after initiating NIPPV. He ultimately left against medical advice.
conclusionNoninvasive positive pressure ventilation can be an effective treatment modality for severe lung injury secondary to chlorine or chloramine exposure.
