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

backgroundConcurrent chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and metabolic syndrome (MetS) represent an important clinical phenotype with overlapping symptomology. The effect of MetS in COPD patients was assessed following treatment with nebulized glycopyrrolate (GLY; administered via eFlow® Closed System Nebulizer).

methodsPosthoc analyses were performed on pooled lung function, patient-reported outcome (PRO) and safety data by MetS status from patients treated with placebo, GLY 25 and 50 mcg twice daily in two 12-week studies (GOLDEN 3 and 4; N=1293). Patients with MetS were characterized as having ≥ 3 of hypertension, hyperlipidemia, diabetes, body mass index (BMI) > 30 kg/m

resultsA total of25% of patients met MetS criteria.At baseline, the MetS subgroup had higher BMIs, more ex-smokers, greater incidences of cardiovascular risk factors, and MetS-specific risk factors were 2-14 times higher than non-MetS. At 12 weeks, GLY produced significant, clinically important improvements (MetS: 0.121 L; non-MetS: 0.083 L) in trough forced expiratory volume in 1 second. In the non-MetS group, significant improvements occurred in the St George's Respiratory Questionnaire (MetS: -2.28,

conclusionGLY was well-tolerated and significantly improved lung function regardless of MetS status, while significant PRO improvements occurred in non-MetS patients. These results highlight the importance of comorbidities on bronchodilator responses and patient symptoms in COPD patients.
