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

aimsIndacaterol/glycopyrronium (IND/GLY) 110/50 μg is a once-daily (o.d.) fixed-dose combination of long-acting β

methodsThis was a real-world, prospective, open-label study. COPD patients aged > 40 years and with a smoking history of > 10 pack-years were included and switched to once-daily IND/GLY 110/50 μg. Enrolment of patients into the study occurred only after the decision had been made by the physician to prescribe IND/GLY 110/50 μg. Data were collected at baseline and Week 26. Health status was assessed using the validated CCQ.

resultsA total of 200 patients were included in study. The mean CCQ total score decreased from 2.36 at baseline to 1.44 at Week 26 (Δ, 0.92; P < 0.0005). Of the 156 patients who completed study, 113 (72.4%) achieved minimum clinically important difference in CCQ total score with IND/GLY 110/50 μg. CCQ domain scores also decreased during the study. Improvement in health status was observed across all GOLD groups and irrespective of prior COPD treatment. Adverse events were reported by 20% of patients with COPD exacerbation/infected COPD being the most common AE, reported by 11 patients.

conclusionsIn real-life clinical practice in Ireland, IND/GLY 110/50 μg o.d. demonstrated statistically significant and clinically important improvement in health status in patients with COPD.
