1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Background: Necrotizing laryngotracheobronchitis (NLTB) is a rare and life-threatening airway disease characterized by mucosal necrosis, ulceration and pseudomembrane formation. Methods: Four previously healthy children hospitalized with Results: The main clinical manifestations included fever, cough, hoarseness, tachypnea and dyspnea. Bronchoscopy confirmed the diagnosis of NLTB. Notably, most patients presented with disproportionately severe airway symptoms compared with radiological lesions. Combined etiological tests and targeted next-generation sequencing (tNGS) confirmed mixed infections in three cases. All children received macrolides or doxycycline plus glucocorticoids, and most underwent repeated bronchoscopic procedures. All achieved clinical remission and were discharged uneventfully. During follow-up, one patient developed tracheal granulation tissue hyperplasia, and the other developed bronchitis obliterans. Conclusion:
