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

Interstitial pneumonia is the most common and serious secondary lesion of dermatomyositis. In some cases, patients may develop severe acute pneumonia that can quickly progress to respiratory failure, resulting in high mortality rates. A 57-year-old woman with dermatomyositis and interstitial pulmonary fibrosis experienced severe hypoxemia due to pulmonary infection. Despite receiving various treatments after entering the intensive care unit (ICU), such as anti-infection therapy, lung recruitment, prone position ventilation, sedative and muscle relaxation, the patient's oxygen saturation continued to decline. Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) monitoring revealed that prone position could not improve ventilation homogeneity. However, the patient's ventilation/perfusion (V/Q) matching significantly improved 10 min after initiation of supine position ventilation combined with inhalation of nitric oxide (iNO). The patient's PaO
