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

backgroundcurrent algorithms for the detection of heart failure (HF) and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) exacerbations have poor performance.

methodsthis study was designed as a prospective longitudinal trial. Physiological parameters were evaluated at rest and effort (walking) in patients who were in the exacerbation or stable phases of HF or COPD. Parameters with relevant discriminatory power (sensitivity (Sn) or specificity (Sp) ≥ 80%, and Youden index ≥ 0.2) were integrated into diagnostic algorithms.

resultsthe study included 127 patients (COPD: 56, HF: 54, both: 17). The best algorithm for COPD included: oxygen saturation (SaO₂) decrease ≥ 2% in minutes 1 to 3 of effort, end-of-effort heart rate (HR) increase ≥ 10 beats/min and walking distance decrease ≥ 35 m (presence of one criterion showed Sn: 0.90 (95%, CI(confidence interval): 0.75⁻0.97), Sp: 0.89 (95%, CI: 0.72⁻0.96), and area under the curve (AUC): 0.92 (95%, CI: 0.85⁻0.995)); and for HF: SaO₂ decrease ≥ 2% in the mean-of-effort, HR increase ≥ 10 beats/min in the mean-of-effort, and walking distance decrease ≥ 40 m (presence of one criterion showed Sn: 0.85 (95%, CI: 0.69⁻0.93), Sp: 0.75 (95%, CI: 0.57⁻0.87) and AUC 0.84 (95%, CI: 0.74⁻0.94)).

conclusionseffort situations improve the validity of physiological parameters for detection of HF and COPD exacerbation episodes.
