Correlation between clinical-functional parameters and number of lobes involved in non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis.
Article in Multidisciplinary respiratory medicine, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
backgroundCurrently, the prognosis of bronchiectasis is based on different prognostic indicators, like BSI and FACED score, founded on clinical-demographic, functional and radiological criteria. Both scoring systems include the number of lobes involved in bronchiectasis, which represents an adverse prognostic index. Our study aimed to investigate the prognostic role of the clinical-functional parameters and the number of involved lobes ratio in adult bronchiectasis.
methodsThe study was conducted on 52 patients diagnosed with non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis (NCFB) between 2015 and 2017 who attended the Pneumology Unit of Monaldi Hospital in Naples, Italy. Correlations between clinical- functional parameters (BMI, smoking history, number of exacerbations in the previous year, spirometry, DL
resultsAt baseline, the number of exacerbations in the previous year had a statistically significant association with the number of involved lobes. Furthermore, at baseline, the radiological criterion was also negatively associated with some functional parameters (FEV
conclusionsImaging extension represents a promising biomarker of disease severity as well as a helpful follow up tool for non-Cystic Fibrosis bronchiectasis (NCFB).
