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

backgroundPrevious population-based studies have suggested that lung function impairment (LFI) could be associated with an increase in the mortality of cardiovascular events.

methodsWe evaluated the association between LFI and the severity and short-term prognosis of acute coronary syndrome (ACS). LFI was established through presence of a forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) and/or a forced vital capacity (FVC) less than 80% of predicted.

resultsSeventy-one LFI subjects (61.45±10.70 years, 83.10% males) and 247 non-LFI subjects (58.98±11.18 years, 80.57% males) with ACS were included. Subjects with LFI exhibited a higher prevalence of systemic hypertension (57.75%

conclusionsThis study indicates a possible association between LFI and a shorter length of stay in the CCU but does not show a significant association with ACS severity.
