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

Interstitial lung diseases (ILD) comprise a heterogeneous group of chronic lung disorders of different etiologies that can not only affect the interstitium but also the alveolar space and the bronchial system. According to the "Global Burden of Disease Study" there has been an increase in incidence over the last decades and it is expected that the number of ILD-associated deaths will double over the next 20 years. ILD are grouped into those of unknown cause, e.g. idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), and ILD of known cause, which include drug-induced and connective tissue disease-associated ILD as well as granulomatous ILD such as sarcoidosis and hypersensitivity pneumonitis. In addition, some ILD present a progressive fibrosing phenotype, which influences therapeutic decisions. Predominantly inflammatory entities are treated with immunosuppressives, whereas predominantly fibrosing ILD are treated with antifibrotic drugs; in some cases, a combination of both is necessary. The spectrum of differential diagnoses in ILD is broad, but definite diagnosis is essential for treatment selection; therefore, the multidisciplinary ILD board plays a pivotal role.
