Laryngeal Sarcoidosis: A Young Patient With Aggravating Dyspnea and Cervical Lymphadenopathy.

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
Sarcoidosis is an inflammatory disease that can affect multiple organs; however, involvement of the head and neck, particularly the larynx, remains very rare, with an incidence of around 0.6%. The present paper describes a case of laryngeal sarcoidosis in a 25-year-old patient with no medical history, presenting a rapidly progressive dyspnea and cervical lymphadenopathy. A flexible laryngoscopy revealed supraglottic edema. Biopsy demonstrated a non-necrotizing granulomatous reaction, without dysplasia or carcinoma and negative Congo red staining, confirming the diagnosis of sarcoidosis. The patient initially responded to corticosteroid therapy but experienced recurrent edema requiring hydroxychloroquine and subsequent methotrexate therapy. This case highlights the diagnostic and therapeutic challenges of supraglottic edema in a young female patient.
