Patterns and Predictors of Air Cleaner Adherence Among Adults with COPD.

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
Rational: Poor indoor air quality has been associated with worse chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) morbidity. In-home portable air cleaners reduce indoor pollutants and could improve respiratory health. Factors associated with air cleaner adherence among adults with COPD remains unknown. Methods: In a 6-month trial of former smokers with COPD, participants (n=116) received active or sham portable air cleaners. Air cleaner adherence was measured by electronic monitors. Potential baseline predictors of adherence included individual factors (demographics, socioeconomic status, smoking history, psychological well-being), COPD disease severity, and housing characteristics. Time and season were also considered. Stepwise logistic regression and longitudinal fixed effect analysis were performed to assess independent predictors of adherence. Results: A total of 109 participants had an objective measure of adherence, and 76.1% used at least 1 air cleaner 80% of the time (defined Conclusion: These findings suggest that cold weather season, use of gas for home heating, and lower annual income negatively impact adherence. Poor quality of life and worse disease control may also decrease adherence. Addressing factors associated with air cleaner adherence should be considered when designing future environmental studies.
