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

Background: Different progressions or prognoses of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) have been reported according to structural abnormalities based on chest computed tomography (CT). This study aimed to investigate whether different structural abnormalities independently affect annual lung function changes and clinical prognosis in patients with COPD. Methods: This longitudinal multicenter observational study was conducted using the KOCOSS cohort (NCT02800499) database in Korea from January 2012 to December 2019. For COPD patients with chest CT findings at baseline enrolment and longitudinal spirometric data, annual forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV Results: Among the enrolled 237 patients, 152 showed structural abnormalities. Emphysema, BE, and TDL were observed in 119 (78.3%), 28 (18.4%), and 27 (17.8%) patients, respectively. The annual decline in FEV Conclusion: The lung function decline rate in COPD differed according to structural abnormalities on CT. These findings may suggest that more focus should be placed on earlier intervention or regular follow-up with spirometry in COPD patients with BE or TDL on chest CT.
