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
Aim: In this study, it was aimed to compare the levels of serum uric acid and uric acid/creatinine ratios in patients with COPD during an attack or in stable COPD, and to show whether serum uric acid and uric acid/creatinine ratios are associated with early mortality in COPD patients during an acute attack. Materials and Methods: In this study, COPD acute attack (n=155) and stable COPD (n=30) patients were evaluated. The data of these patients were obtained from patient files and computer records. COPD diagnosis and severity assessment were made according to the GOLD 2006 guideline. Participants' age, gender, body mass index, pulmonary function test, arterial blood gas, uric acid, creatinine values and comorbidity information were recorded in the previously prepared Case Data Form. In 2012, when we conducted this study, gold 2006 was taken as the guideline for spirometry measurement, but spirometric measurements determined with reference values determined according to age, height and gender, and FEV1/FVC measurement <70% as diagnostic criteria in acute attack after bronchodilator were the guidelines used later, gold 2017. It is also compatible with gold2020 and gold2021 spirometry criteria. Results: It was determined that the uric acid (p<0.001) and uric acid/creatinine (p<0.001) levels of the patients in the acute attack group were significantly higher than the levels of the patients in the stable group. The attack group was divided into two subgroups according to certain cut-off points for uric acid (>6 mg/dl for women and >7 mg/dl for men) and uric acid/creatinine ratio (median value 7.10). Since the upper limit of the uric acid value measured in the blood is 6 mg/dl in women and 7-8 mg/dl in men, the cut-off points for uric acid (>6 mg/dl for women and >7 mg/dl for men) were determined in our study. According to this categorization, it was determined that there was no statistically significant relationship between uric acid level (odds ratio 2.985 [95% confidence interval 0.61814,151]) and early mortality risk. Conclusion: The results of this study showed that the uric acid and uric acid/creatinine levels in the attack group were higher than the levels in the stable group, but these parameters were not associated with early mortality.
