First manifestation of acute exacerbation of idiopathic interstitial pneumonia during emergency maxillary drainage: a case report.

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
Acute exacerbation of idiopathic interstitial pneumonia (AE-IIP) can be triggered by invasive procedures and carries a mortality rate of approximately 50%. We report a case of a 73-year-old man who presented to a dental emergency room with maxillary swelling and a fever of 39.0℃. Initially, the patient was prescribed analgesics and antibiotics. The following day, because of an elevated C-reactive protein (CRP) level (18.0 mg/dL), emergency incision and drainage were performed. During the procedure, he developed tachypnea, dry cough, and hypoxia (SpO2, 85-90%). The patient was immediately transferred to a medical emergency hospital, where chest computed tomography confirmed the diagnosis of IIP. The patient was admitted to the respiratory care unit and was treated with corticosteroid pulse therapy and antibiotics. The patient was discharged on day 39 with ambulatory oxygen therapy. High CRP levels and acute hypoxia may be critical early indicators of AE-IIP. Dental anesthesiologists must recognize that oral infections can trigger severe and potentially fatal systemic inflammatory responses, including AE-IIP.
