Russian Registry of Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis: Clinical Features, Treatment Management, and Outcomes.

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
A registry of patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) was founded in Russia in 2016. The aim of this study was to analyze the demographic, clinical, functional, radiological, and morphological data of the patients included in this registry.
methodsThis was a prospective multicenter, observational, non-interventional study. Patients' risk factors, demographics, clinical data, results of high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) of the chest and pulmonary function testing, and lung tissue biopsy findings were analyzed. We also analyzed the exercise tolerance (6-min walking test) of patients, serological markers of systemic connective tissue diseases, treatment, clinical course, and outcomes of the disease. Multidisciplinary discussion (MDD) was used as needed.
resultsOne thousand three hundred and fifty-three patients were included in the registry from 2016 to 2020. The mean age was 64.4 ± 10.7 years, most patients were active smokers or ex-smokers. Antifibrotic therapy was administered to 90 of 948 patients (9.5%). Since starting the registry in 2016, the incidences of IPF have increased and the time period from manifestation of the disease to making the diagnosis has shortened, the number of patients on antifibrotic therapy has increased and the number of patients taking systemic steroids decreased.
conclusionThe registry of patients with IPF was helpful to improve IPF diagnosis and to implement antifibrotic agents in clinical practice. Further analysis of the clinical course and prognostic markers of IPF in the Russian population is needed. An analysis of the long-term efficacy of antifibrotic therapy in this population is also important.
