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.

Abstract

objectivesChronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a disease associated with ageing. However, actual age does not accurately reflect the degree of biological ageing. Phenotypic age (PhenoAge) is a new indicator of biological ageing, and phenotypic age minus actual age is known as phenotypic age acceleration (PhenoAgeAccel). This research aimed to analyse the relationship between PhenoAgeAccel and lung function and COPD.

designA cross-sectional study.

participantsData for the study were obtained from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2007-2010. We defined people with forced expiratory volume in 1 s/forced vital capacity <0.70 after inhaled bronchodilators as COPD and the rest of the population as non-COPD. Adults aged 40 years or older were enrolled in the study. PRIMARY AND SECONDARY OUTCOME MEASURES: Linear and logistic regression were used to investigate the relationship between PhenoAgeAccel, lung function and COPD. Subgroup analysis was performed by gender, age, ethnicity and smoking index COPD. In addition, we analysed the relationship between the smoking index, respiratory symptoms and PhenoAgeAccel. Multiple models were used to reduce confounding bias.

results5397 participants were included in our study, of which 1042 had COPD. Compared with PhenoAgeAccel Quartile1, Quartile 4 had a 52% higher probability of COPD; elevated PhenoAgeAccel was also significantly associated with reduced lung function. Further subgroup analysis showed that high levels of PhenoAgeAccel had a more significant effect on lung function in COPD, older adults and whites (P for interaction <0.05). Respiratory symptoms and a high smoking index were related to higher indicators of ageing.

conclusionsOur study found that accelerated ageing is associated with the development of COPD and impaired lung function. Smoking cessation and anti-ageing therapy have potential significance in COPD.
