When Clopidogrel Reaches the Lung: A Case of Diffuse Interstitial Lung Disease.
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
Drug-induced diffuse interstitial lung diseases are uncommon but potentially severe adverse reactions. Clopidogrel, a widely used antiplatelet agent for the prevention of thromboembolic events, has only rarely been associated with interstitial lung injury. We report the case of a 76-year-old former smoker with a history of dyslipidemia and triple-vessel coronary artery disease who was admitted for chest pain following a recent myocardial infarction. Coronary angiography revealed no new coronary lesions, and antiplatelet therapy was switched from ticagrelor to clopidogrel. Three days after clopidogrel initiation, the patient developed progressive dyspnea (New York Heart Association: NYHA class III), hypoxemia (partial pressure of oxygen or PaO
