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

objectiveTo compare the safety and effectiveness between bronchial artery embolisation (BAE) and conservative treatment for bronchiectasis-related nonmassive haemoptysis patients. MATERIALS AND

methodsFrom January 2015 to December 2020, consecutive bronchiectasis-related nonmassive haemoptysis patients who underwent either BAE (n = 98) or conservative treatment (n = 118) were included. Treatment-related complications, length of hospital stays, clinical success rate, patient satisfaction, and recurrence-free survival rates were compared between groups. Prognostic factors related to recurrence were also analysed.

resultsDuring a median follow-up time of 44.8 months (range, 2.4-83.6 months), 34 and 66 patients in the BAE and conservative treatment groups suffered relapse. The 1-year, 2-year, 3-year and 5-year haemoptysis-free survival rates in the BAE and conservative treatment groups were 79.2%, 68.1%, 62.8%, and 57.6% and 64.0%, 52.8%, 44.1%, and 37.0%, respectively (P = 0.007). The minor complication rate after BAE was higher than that after conservative treatment (23/98 vs. 12/118, P = 0.008). BAE was associated with shorter hospital stays (5.0 vs. 7.0 days, P = 0.042) and higher patient satisfaction (88.8% vs. 74.6%, P = 0.008) than those for conservative treatment and with comparable clinical success rates (95.9% vs. 91.5%, P = 0.192). Treatment type, haemoptysis duration, and bronchiectasis severity were independently significant predictors of recurrence for these patients.

conclusionsBAE could be another option for bronchiectasis-related nonmassive haemoptysis patients. In the patients with longer duration and more severe bronchiectasis, BAE still appeared to have better long-term haemoptysis control than conservative therapy.
