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

Recent therapeutic advances in the management of asthma have underscored the importance of eosinophilia and the role of pro-eosinophilic mediators such as IL-5 in asthma. Given that a subset of patients with COPD may display peripheral eosinophilia similar to what is observed in asthma, a number of recent studies have implied that eosinophilic COPD is a distinct entity. This review will seek to contrast the mechanisms of eosinophilia in asthma and COPD, the implications of eosinophilia for disease outcome, and review current data regarding the utility of peripheral blood eosinophilia in the management of COPD patients.
