Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme (ACE) Inhibitor-Induced Angioedema Presenting After Long-Term Antihypertensive Therapy: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2026. 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
Angioedema involving the airway is a serious medical condition that requires prompt recognition and treatment to prevent significant morbidity and mortality. Angioedema associated with angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors can occur at any stage of therapy. While many patients develop symptoms early in treatment, others may remain asymptomatic for months or even years. Diagnosis is primarily clinical and relies on the presence of non-itchy, non-urticarial swelling in a patient receiving an ACE inhibitor, as there is no definitive laboratory test for ACE inhibitor-induced angioedema. ACE inhibitor-related angioedema is one of the most common types of non-histaminergic angioedema encountered in clinical practice. Here, we present a case of angioedema affecting the lips and tongue that developed years after ACE inhibitor initiation, resulting in difficult airway management and impending cardiac arrest. This case highlights the differential diagnosis of angioedema and the management strategies for a difficult airway.
