Cardiopulmonary coupling in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease: the role of imaging.
Review in Journal of thoracic imaging, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers.
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
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disorder (COPD) is a systemic disease that affects the cardiovascular system through multiple pathways. Pulmonary hypertension, ventricular dysfunction, and atherosclerosis are associated with smoking and COPD, causing significant morbidity and poor prognosis. Coupling between the pulmonary and cardiovascular system involves mechanical interdependence and inflammatory pathways that potentially affect the entire circulation. Although treatments specific for COPD-related cardiovascular and pulmonary vascular disease are limited, early diagnosis, study of pathophysiology, and monitoring the effects of treatment are enhanced with improved imaging techniques. In this article, we review recent advancements in the imaging of the vasculature and the heart in patients with COPD. We also explore the potential mechanism of coupling between the progression of COPD and vascular disease. Imaging methods reviewed include specific implementations of computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, dual-energy computed tomography, positron emission tomography, and echocardiography. Specific applications to the proximal and distal pulmonary vasculature, as well as to the heart and systemic circulation, are also discussed.
