Non-antimicrobial airway management of non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis.
Review in Journal of clinical tuberculosis and other mycobacterial diseases, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Bronchiectasis are often encountered in clinical practice, and are characterized by abnormal airway dilatation and distortion associated with impaired mucociliary clearance and mucous plugging, which are frequently associated with recurrent infections. Numerous etiologies can underlie the development of bronchiectasis, but the most important distinction in research and clinical practice is between bronchiectasis due to cystic fibrosis (CF) and bronchiectasis due to all other reasons (non-CF bronchiectasis). The causes of non-CF bronchiectasis are varied and often unclear. Patients disease severity and phenotypes of non-CF bronchiectasis also varied, which can influence disease trajectory, frequency of exacerbations and mortality. This article reviews the published evidence and suggests interventions to enhance airways clearance in patients with non-CF bronchiectasis, which are key components of an individualized therapeutic program in order to achieve symptomatic relief and prevention of exacerbations and functional decline.
