Influence of Pneumonia on the Survival of Patients with COPD.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundPneumonia is a frequent infection. Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) can present with comorbidities, including pneumonia. It is known that COPD worsens the evolution of pneumonia, but few studies describe the impact of pneumonia on COPD evolution. This study analyzes the influence of pneumonia on the survival of COPD patients.
methodsObservational study of a cohort of 273 patients with COPD who attended spirometry in 2011, with a prospective follow-up of six years. Patients were divided into two groups according to their acquisition of pneumonia during follow-up. The difference in survival between the two groups was analyzed.
resultsSurvival was lower in the group with pneumonia compared with that without pneumonia (
conclusionsPneumonia is associated with worse prognosis in COPD patients. It is important to take into account this comorbidity for a comprehensive care of these patients.
