Validation of the St. George's Respiratory Questionnaire in Nepal.
Article in Chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases (Miami, Fla.), 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
The St. George's Respiratory Questionnaire (SGRQ) is a standardized questionnaire for measuring impaired health and perceived well-being in chronic airway disease, but it is not available in the Nepali language. We translated the original SGRQ into Nepali and validated its use in 150 individuals aged 40 to 80 years with and without COPD.We also examined if the SGRQ could be used as a screening tool to identify individuals at risk for COPD. We translated the SGRQ following a standard protocol. The validation study was then conducted in both community and hospital-based settings in Nepal. We enrolled 100 participants from a community setting who were not actively seeking medical care, 50 of which met criteria for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) (post-bronchodilator forced expiratory volume in 1 second [FEV
