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

backgroundThe effect of laparoscopic fundoplication on reflux-related chronic cough is unpredictable, the aim of the study is to investigate the predictive effect of positive reflux-cough correlation on the resolution of reflux-related chronic cough after anti-reflux surgery.

methodsA 5 years retrospective review was performed. Logistic regression analysis was used to determine the independent predictors on the cure of chronic cough.

resultsSeventy-nine patients were included in this study, among which chronic cough was cured in 47 (59.5%) and significantly improved in 10 (12.7%) patients. Present of typical symptoms (odds ratio = 6.435,95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.427-29.032, p = 0.015) and number of Reflux episodes (impedance) ≥73 (odds ratio = 0.306, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 0.107-0.874, p = 0.027) were significantly associated with the cure of chronic cough.

conclusionslaparoscopic fundoplicaiton is effective for the management of reflux-related chronic cough, particularly with the present of typical symptoms.
