Differences in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease among US nursing home residents with heart failure according to sex and type of heart failure.
Article in The clinical respiratory journal, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundHeart failure and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are leading cause of death throughout the world. Few recent studies have, however, examined possible sex and type of heart failure (HFpEF, HFrEF, and unspecified/other heart failure) differences in the prevalence of these chronic conditions among nursing home residents.
objectivesThe aim of this study is to examine the magnitude of concomitant COPD and differences according to sex and heart failure type, in terms of the prevalence of COPD among nursing home residents with heart failure.
methodsThe principal study outcomes were examined in a cross-sectional study of 97 495 US nursing home residents with heart failure using the 2018 Minimum Data Set. The diagnoses of heart failure and COPD were operationalized through a review of nursing home admission, progress notes, and physical examination findings.
resultsThe average age of this study population was 81.3 ± 11.0 years, 67.3% were women, and 53.8% had COPD. A slightly higher prevalence of COPD was found among men than women. A higher proportion of unspecified heart failure type was found in both men and women, than reduced and preserved ejection fractions, respectively. In both men and women, there was a higher prevalence of COPD among those with various chronic conditions and current tobacco users.
conclusionsCOPD is highly prevalent among medically complex middle-aged and older nursing home residents with heart failure. Future research should focus on increasing our understanding of factors that influence the risk and optimal management of COPD and heart failure to improve the quality of life for nursing home residents.
