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

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), a heterogeneous lung disorder that is characterized by airflow obstruction and the third leading cause of death, globally. COPD is influenced by environmental and genetic factors. Here, we measured the serum level of matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9), cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and prostaglandin E-2 (PGE-2) and reveal the correlation between their levels in COPD subjects. In this study, we included a total of 79 COPD and 79 healthy controls. We assessed demographic profile, risk factors, respiratory symptoms, clinical history, COPD Assessment Test (CAT) score and spirometry. Further, we determined the serum levels of MMP-9, COX-2 and PGE-2 by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The correlation between their serum levels was also determined. Among the studied population age, gender, body mass index and socioeconomic status were comparable. Serum levels of MMP-9, COX-2 and PGE-2 were significantly increased in the COPD group than in healthy controls ( Supplementary Information: The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1007/s12291-021-00973-2.
