Occupational exposure to vapor, gas, dust, or fumes and chronic airflow limitation, COPD, and emphysema: the Swedish CArdioPulmonary BioImage Study (SCAPIS pilot).
Article in International journal of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 15 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
backgroundThe aim of this study was to estimate the occupational burden of airflow limitation, chronic airflow limitation, COPD, and emphysema. MATERIALS AND
methodsSubjects aged 50-64 years (n=1,050) were investigated with forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV
resultsThere were significant associations between occupational exposure to VGDF and COPD (OR 2.7, 95% CI 1.4-51), airflow limitation (OR 1.8, 95% CI 1.3-2.5), and emphysema (OR 1.8, 95% CI 1.1-3.1). The associations between occupational exposure to VGDF and chronic airflow limitation were weaker, and for the OR, the CIs included unity. The population-attributable fraction for occupational exposure to VGDF was 0.37 (95% CI 0.23-0.47) for COPD and 0.23 (95% CI 0.05-0.35) for emphysema.
conclusionThe occupational burden of COPD and computed tomography-verified emphysema is substantial.
