Pulmonary exacerbations in insured patients with bronchiectasis over 2 years.
Article in ERJ open research, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers.
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
Background: Patients with bronchiectasis experience persistent symptoms and frequent pulmonary exacerbations; this study investigated the frequency of exacerbations and all-cause hospitalisation. Methods: This longitudinal, retrospective, claims database study (IBM® MarketScan®) identified patients aged ≥18 years from 1 July 2015 through 30 September 2018. Exacerbations were identified by bronchiectasis inpatient claim or a healthcare interaction, followed by antibiotic prescription within 7 days. Patients with ≥36 months of continuous health plan enrolment (12 months preceding the first bronchiectasis claim, Results: In total, 14 798 patients with bronchiectasis were identified; 64.5% were female, 82.7% were aged ≥55 years and 42.7% had ≥2 exacerbations at baseline. Having ≥2 exacerbations after 2 years was positively associated with chronic macrolide use, long-acting β2 agonist use, gastro-oesophageal reflux disease, heart failure and Conclusion: Frequent exacerbations in patients with bronchiectasis may increase the likelihood of future exacerbations over 2 years of follow-up, with increased hospitalisation rates over time.
