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

Introduction: Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a chronic disease with a peculiar (typical) HRCT pattern, but biopsy can demonstrate usual interstitial pneumonia in patients with atypical patterns. It is unknown how progression pattern varies among different radiographic presentations of IPF. We sought to investigate the longitudinal radiographic evolution and survival of typical and non-typical patterns. Materials and Methods: One-hundred-twenty-three patients diagnosed with IPF in 2 tertiary referral hospitals were included in the study. Longitudinal evolution of non-typical patterns was considered. The HRCT visual fibrosis score was used as a reliable evaluation tool of disease progression. HRCTs were scored by 2 senior chest radiologists with ILD expertise. The primary endpoint was the evolution of the presentation pattern to probable or typical. The secondary endpoint was lung transplant (LTx)-free survival from the time of diagnosis. Results: Average interval between HRCTs was 16±5 months; average follow-up after the 2 Conclusions: The evolution of a non-typical UIP pattern to a typical one is infrequent. All presentation HRCT patterns of IPF evolve in similar way and are associated with comparable survival time.[/sc].
