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

objectivesThe aim of our study was to examine pulmonary functions of patients from all stages of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) according to their smoking status. MATERIALS AND

methodsA retrospective case-control study was carried out. Total of 148 patients were enrolled and divided into two groups in regards to their smoking status (quitters, n=68; non-quitters, n=80). Pulmonary function parameters, COPD assessment test score, Fagerström Nicotine Addiction Questionnaire score, smoking history and status were obtained from the electronic hospital data system. Patients' admission and 12-month data were recorded.
