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

backgroundA claims-based model to predict patients likely to have undiagnosed COPD was developed by Moretz et al in 2015. This study aims to assess the performance of the aforementioned model using prospectively collected spirometry data.

methodsA study population aged 40-89 years enrolled in a Medicare Advantage plan with prescription drug coverage or commercial health plan and without a claim for COPD diagnosis was identified from April 1, 2012 to March 31, 2016 in the Humana claims database. This population was stratified into subjects likely or unlikely to have undiagnosed COPD using the claims-based predictive model. Subjects were randomly selected for spirometry evaluation of FEV

resultsA total of 218 subjects classified by the predictive model as likely and 331 not likely to have undiagnosed COPD completed spirometry evaluation. Those predicted to have undiagnosed COPD had a higher mean age (70.2 vs 67.9 years,

conclusionThe claims-based predictive model identifies those not at risk of having COPD eight out of ten times, and those who are likely to have COPD one out of three times.
