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

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a progressive disease with significant mortality and morbidity. Approval of antifibrotic therapy has ameliorated disease progression, but therapy response is heterogeneous and to date, adequate biomarkers predicting therapy response are lacking. In recent years metabolomic technology has improved and is broadly applied in cancer research thus enabling its use in other fields. Recently both aberrant metabolic and lipidomic pathways have been described to influence profibrotic responses. We thus aimed to characterize the metabolomic and lipidomic changes between IPF and healthy volunteers (HV) and analyze metabolomic changes following treatment with nintedanib and pirfenidone. We collected serial serum samples from two IPF cohorts from Germany (
