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

Airway distensibility is defined as the ease whereby airways are dilating in response to inflating lung pressure. If measured swiftly and accurately, airway distensibility would be a useful readout to parse the various elements contributing to airway wall stiffening, such as smooth muscle contraction, surface tension, and airway remodeling. The goal of the present study was to develop a method for measuring airway distensibility in mice. Lungs of BALB/c and C57BL/6 mice from either sex were subjected to stepwise changes in pressure. At each pressure step, an oscillometric perturbation was used to measure the impedance spectrum, on which the constant-phase model was fitted to deduce a surrogate for airway caliber called Newtonian conductance (G
