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

Purpose: To evaluate the degree of lung hyperinflation (LH) in patients with stable chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) by lung ultrasound score (LUS) and assess its value. Patients and Methods: We conducted a study of 149 patients with stable COPD and 100 healthy controls recruited by the Second Affiliated Hospital of Fujian Medical University. The pleural sliding displacement (PSD) was measured, the sliding of the pleura in different areas was observed, and LUS was calculated from both of them. The diaphragm excursion (DE), residual capacity (RV), total lung capacity (TLC), inspiratory capacity (IC) and functional residual capacity (FRC) were measured. We described the correlation between ultrasound indicators and pulmonary function indicators reflecting LH. Multiple linear regression analysis was used. The ROC curves of LUS and DE were drawn to evaluate their diagnostic efficacy, and De Long method was used for comparison. Results: (1) The LUS of patients with stable COPD were positively correlated with RV, TLC, RV/TLC and FRC and negatively correlated with IC and IC/TLC ( Conclusion: The lung ultrasound score is an important parameter for evaluating LH. LUS is better than DE at maximal deep inspiration for diagnosing severe LH and is expected to become an effective auxiliary tool for evaluating LH.
