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

backgroundThe aim of this study was to examine relationship between the parameters of pulmonary function and the severity of coronary artery disease (CAD) in chronic obstructive lung disease patients. MATERIALS AND

methodsFour hundred and twenty four patients with ischemic heart diseases who underwent coronary angiography were studied. The demographic characteristics and medical history of the patients were obtained from their medical records.The severity of COPD was determined according to the Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease. In addition, the severity of CAD was quantified by SYNTAX scoring.

resultsEighty-eight (21.2%), 270 (65.1%), 52 (12.5%), and 5 (1.2%) of the patients had the grade 1, 2, 3, or 4 COPD, respectively. In addition, 46 (11.1%), 319 (76.9%), and 50 (12.0%) of them had low, intermediate, and high CAD, respectively. A statistically significant relationship was observed between the severity of COPD and the severity of CAD. Significant relationships were found between age, sex, BMI, LDL, EF, and systolic pressure of pulmonary artery with the severity of COPD. The odds of higher CAD in females were 1.849 times higher than male patients. In addition, the odds of high CAD in the patients with grade 1 or 2 COPD were 0.006 and 0.068 times of the patients with grades 3 and 4 COPD, respectively.

conclusionsThe findings of the present study indicate that the parameters of pulmonary function and the severity of CAD are associated with the severity of COPD.
