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

backgroundAlthough pulmonary abnormalities have been recognized in patients with inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD), their prevalence and clinical significance are not known.

aimTo study the prevalence and clinical significance of pulmonary abnormalities in patients with IBD.

methodsNinety-five non-consecutive patients with IBD (12 Crohn's disease, 83 ulcerative colitis; mean age 41.9 [SD 13] years; 47 women) were prospectively studied from January 2007 to March 2010. Pulmonary function tests (PFT) and high-resolution CT (HRCT) chest were performed in them. PFT were compared to those in 270 healthy (control) subjects matched for age, sex and smoking status.

resultsTwenty-seven (28.5%) patients and 11 (4%) control subjects had abnormal PFT (p < 0.0001). Small airway obstruction was seen in 18 patients, restrictive defect in six and mixed defect in three. Twenty-one (22%) patients had abnormal HRCT findings - bronchiectasis and nodules (nine patients each, including one with nodules who later developed active tuberculosis after infliximab therapy), parenchymal bands (8), mediastinal lymphadenopathy (five, including two with tuberculosis on histology and culture), emphysema (5), brochiolitis (2), pleural effusion or thickening (2), pericardial effusion (2), patchy consolidation (1), ground-glass opacities (1) and lung metastasis (1). Three patients had symptoms (one asthma, two cough).

conclusionPFT and HRCT chest showed abnormality in about one-quarter of patients with IBD. A majority of patients with these abnormalities were asymptomatic.
