Drug interaction and chronic obstructive respiratory disorders.
Review in Current research in pharmacology and drug discovery, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 7 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.

7 citing papers in PubMed, 1 synthesis or guideline pooled it, 14 citations in OpenAlex.

Abstract
Chronic obstructive respiratory disorders uncontrolled by monotherapy should be given combinations of drugs that act by distinct mechanisms of action. The rationale for combining different classes of drugs should be to elicit a synergistic interaction, lower the dose of the single components in the combinations and, thus, reduce the risk of adverse events. The aim of this systematic review was to investigate the combined effect of drugs acting on human airways, by including studies that used a validated method for assessing the nature of drug interaction. Current evidence indicates that drug combinations modulating the bronchial contractility induce a synergistic relaxant effect when the individual components are combined at isoeffective concentrations. There are several mechanisms of action underlying drug interactions. Pharmacological research has been directed to elucidate what causes the synergism between long-acting β
