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
Diurnal temperature range (DTR) has been suggested to be an adverse health factor especially related to respiratory and cardiovascular diseases. In the current study, we investigated the association between DTR and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) hospital admissions during 2009 to 2012 in northeast city of Changchun, China. Based on generalized additive model (GAM), the effects were expressed as relative risk (RR) values of COPD with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) with each 1 °C increase in DTR. And they were significantly increased with an increment of 1 °C in DTR, modified by season, age, and sex. The elderly were more vulnerable, with relative risk values of 1.048 (1.029, 1.066) in cold season and 1.037 (1.021, 1.053) in warm season. Regarding the gender, the DTR effect on females was greater during cold season and the RR value was 1.051 (1.033, 1.069) on the current day (lag 0). The greater estimates for males appeared at lag 7 days, with RR of 1.019 (0.998, 1.040). A season-specific effect was detected that the relative risk values with per 1 °C increase in DTR were greater in cold season than in warm season. These findings support the hypothesis of significant relationship between DTR and COPD in Changchun, one northeast city of China.
