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

introductionChronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a lung disease with the highest incidence and high mortality in the world. Acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD) can significantly accelerate the progression of the disease. Pulmonary rehabilitation is one of the effective treatment methods in COPD patients, but few studies have focused on the effect of pulmonary rehabilitation in AECOPD patients. Liuzijue can improve the pulmonary function and relieve symptoms of COPD patients. However, due to the influence of disease and non-invasive ventilation (NIV), AECOPD patients have poor compliance with getting out of bed at the early stage. Sitting and lying Liuzijue is more suitable in AECOPD patients with NIV. Therefore, this study will evaluate the effect of sitting and lying Liuzijue for lung function, exercise endurance, and quality of life in AEOPD patients with NIV.

methodsThis study is a clinical randomized controlled trial. Sixty four AECOPD patients with NIV will be randomly divided into the experimental group and the control group. All participants will be treated with routine treatment and nursing according to their specific condition. The experimental group will be combined with sitting and lying Liuzijue on the basis of the control group. The duration of the exercise will be 3 months. The primary outcomes are the pulmonary function test and 6-minute walking test (6MWT). The secondary outcome measures include blood gas parameters, dyspnea index (the Modified Medical Research Council Dyspnea Scale [mMRC]), the body-mass, airflow obstruction, dyspnea and exercise capacity (BODE) index, anxiety, and depression (Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale [HADS]), and quality of life (St·George Respiratory Questionnaire [SGRQ]). The measurement of outcomes will be evaluated at week 13. DISCUSSION: It's imperative to focus on pulmonary rehabilitation in AECOPD patients. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of sitting and lying Liuzijue for pulmonary rehabilitation in AECOPD patients with NIV.
