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

Background: Heated tobacco products (HTPs) were designed to deliver nicotine by heating the tobacco instead of burning it. This study aimed to examine the acute health effects on the respiratory and cardiovascular systems during the use of HTPs and compare these effects with acute health effects evoked by cigarette smoking or electronic cigarettes (e-cigarettes). Methods: The study group comprised 160 healthy young adults (age 23 years; quartile 1 (Q1) 21 years; quartile 3 (Q3) 26 years) with both sexes divided into groups according to their smoking status: 40 HTP users (H group), 40 traditional cigarette smokers (T group), 40 e-cigarette users (E group) and 40 non-smokers (C group). Heart rate, blood pressure, oxygen saturation, exhaled nitric oxide fraction ( Results: After 5 min of exposure, a significant decrease in Conclusions: The use of HTPs elicits acute respiratory and cardiovascular health effects.
