Factors associated with bronchiectasis in Korea: a national database study.
Article in Annals of translational medicine, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 19 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
backgroundMany important clinical features of bronchiectasis have been reported. However, the factors were evaluated using a specific disease cohort. Thus, clinical factors associated with bronchiectasis have not been well assessed in comparison to the general population. The aim of this study was to evaluate the factors associated with bronchiectasis using a national representative database.
methodsWe conducted a cross-sectional study using data from the Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2007-2009. To evaluate factors associated with bronchiectasis, a multivariable logistic analysis was used with adjustment for demographic and socioeconomic factors.
resultsIn the present study, the prevalence of bronchiectasis was 0.4%. Compared with subjects without bronchiectasis, subjects with bronchiectasis were older (55.1
conclusionsSubjects with bronchiectasis suffered from more respiratory symptoms with limited physical activity and poorer quality of life than the general population. Factors independently associated with bronchiectasis were lower family income and comorbid pulmonary conditions, such as previous pulmonary TB, asthma, and airflow limitation.
