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

In the present study, the clinical efficacy of the immune modulator lentinan combined with inhalation of the corticosteroid budesonide in treating acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD) under mechanical ventilation was assessed. A total of 72 cases of AECOPD treated at Shanghai Jiao Tong University Affiliated Sixth People's Hospital (Shanghai, China) between June 2016 and September 2017 were enrolled. The AECOPD patients were randomly divided into an experimental group (n=36) and a control group (n=36). All of the patients received ventilator support and endotracheal intubation was performed. The experimental group was orally administered lentinan and budesonide was administered via atomization inhalation through a Y-tube and the control group received only budesonide via Y-tube. After the treatment, airway pressure, the time of mechanical ventilation and the time of stay at the intensive care unit for the experimental group were significantly lower than those for the control group (P<0.001). The plasma levels of adiponectin, D-dimer, interleukin-17 and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein, as well as the pressure of CO
