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

The aim of this study was to evaluate the risk of asthma in rheumatoid arthritis patients using matched control group for socioeconomic factors and past medical history. Adults >20 years old were collected from the Korean Health Insurance Review and Assessment Service - National Sample Cohort (HIRA-NSC) from 2002 through 2013. A total of 6,695 individuals with rheumatoid arthritis were matched for age, sex, income, region of residence, hypertension, diabetes, and dyslipidemia with 26,780 individuals included in a control group. In both the rheumatoid arthritis and control groups, subjects' history of asthma was evaluated. Asthma (J45 and J46) and rheumatoid arthritis (M05 and M06) were included based on the International Classification of Disease-10 (ICD-10) codes and medication history. The crude and adjusted (depression and Charlson Comorbidity Index) hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) of asthma for rheumatoid arthritis patients were analyzed using a stratified Cox proportional hazard model. Subgroup analyses were conducted according to age and sex, number of treatment histories, and medication histories. Approximately 16.4% (1,095/6,695) of rheumatoid arthritis group and 13.0% (3,469/26,780) of the control group had asthma (P < 0.001). The rheumatoid arthritis group demonstrated a higher adjusted HR for asthma than the control group (adjusted HR = 1.23, 95% CI = 1.15-1.32, P < 0.001). This result was consistent in all subgroups. Rheumatoid arthritis was related to an increase risk of asthma.
