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

The aim of this manuscript is to provide a comprehensive review of the etiology, measurement, and treatment of common pulmonary symptoms associated with sarcoidosis. The assessment of symptoms associated with pulmonary sarcoidosis is an important component of disease management. Some symptoms of pulmonary sarcoidosis are sensitive but nonspecific markers of disease activity, and the absence of such symptoms provides evidence that the disease is quiescent. Although quantifiable objective measurements of pulmonary physiology and chest imaging are important in the assessment of pulmonary sarcoidosis, they correlate poorly with the patient's quality of life. Because the symptoms of pulmonary sarcoidosis directly relate to how the patient feels, they are reasonable endpoints in terms of clinical research and individual patient care. Recently, the symptoms of pulmonary sarcoidosis are capable of being quantified via patient-reported outcome measures and electronic devices. We conclude that a thorough assessment of the symptoms associated with pulmonary sarcoidosis improves patient care because it is a useful screen for manifestations of the disease, provides insight into the pathophysiology of manifestations of sarcoidosis, and may assist in optimizing treatment.
