A Case Report of Exercise-Induced Pulmonary Oedema After an Ironman.
Article in Cureus, 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
Exercise-induced pulmonary oedema (EIPO) is a rare and poorly understood condition, most commonly reported in patients participating in swimming-based endurance events. We report a 47-year-old male who developed acute dyspnoea and a cough during the cycling segment of an Ironman triathlon post swimming stage. The patient completed the race with his symptoms, and post-race assessment revealed hypoxia, prompting transfer to the local emergency department. Chest imaging showed acute pulmonary oedema. The patient was treated with furosemide and made a full recovery. EIPO is relatively uncommon in sporting events and typically presents with dyspnoea and hypoxia. It is most frequently observed in cold-water, submersive sports, although cases during land-based endurance activities have been reported. The underlying pathophysiology remains poorly understood. With the growing popularity of endurance sports, it is essential for clinicians to recognise EIPO promptly to ensure timely management.
