Loneliness and ED Visits in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease.
Article in Mayo Clinic proceedings. Innovations, quality & outcomes, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 15 papers.
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.
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 primary objective of this study was to investigate the association of loneliness and the incidence of ED visits in a large and well-characterized cohort of patients with severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD); the association of loneliness with performance measures and health perception was the secondary objective. Baseline data were used from the National Emphysema Treatment Trial (NETT), which investigated the effectiveness of lung volume reduction surgery in patients with moderate-to-severe COPD.
