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

objectiveAlpha1-antitrypsin deficiency is a rare hereditary disorder. Deficient patients are at a higher risk to develop lung emphysema at an early age. The alpha1-antitrypsin registry was founded on 1996 to get new insights into the pathogenesis of the disease and to develop new therapeutic strategies. In this study the epidemiological and clinical findings of the Austrian alpha1-antitrypsin deficient patients are presented. MATERIAL AND

methodsA total of 139 patients with severe alpha1-antitrypsin deficiency, identified by phenol- and genotyping, were evaluated retrospectively by their physicians with the help of a questionnaire.

resultsMost patients were smokers or ex-smokers (71.9%) who developed symptoms in their fourth decade. The mean duration between the onset of symptoms and the final diagnosis was 6.5 years. About 25% of the evaluated patients were unable to practice their profession because of their illness.

conclusionAlpha1-antitrypsin deficiency is a rare condition with delayed diagnosis. Because of the benefit of an early diagnosis further effort should be put towards early detection.
