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

Background: Multichannel intraluminal impedance and pH-monitoring (MII-pH) is an essential testing modality for gastroesophageal reflux-induced chronic cough (GERC), while the existing diagnostic criteria still have some inherent defects. This study aimed to explore the diagnostic value of a direct and objective index, reflux episodes, and related parameters in MII-pH in different types of GERC. Methods: Patients with chronic cough suspected of gastroesophageal reflux disease who successfully received MII-pH were enrolled. The differences in MII-pH parameters were analyzed among patients with different etiologies and the predictive diagnostic value of reflux episodes and related parameters were analyzed in patients with GERC, acid GERC, and non-acid GERC, and compared with existing diagnostic criteria. Results: A total of 190 patients with suspected GERC who underwent MII-pH were enrolled; 131 of these patients were finally diagnosed with GERC. When the reflux episodes were used to diagnose GERC, the area under the curve (AUC) was 0.684; when the acid reflux episodes and the ratio of acid reflux episodes were used to diagnose acid GERC, the AUCs were 0.769 and 0.854; when the non-acid reflux episodes and the ratio of non-acid reflux episodes were used to diagnose non-acid GERC, the AUCs were 0.735 and 0.705, respectively. When the non-acid reflux episodes > 58 and the proportion of non-acid reflux episodes > 68.18% were used alone or in combination to diagnose non-acid GERC, their diagnostic value was significantly better than SAP or SI (all Conclusion: The number of reflux episodes has a good diagnostic value for GERC, especially in the diagnosis of non-acid GERC.
