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

Background: In compatible with fibrotic hypersensitivity pneumonitis (HP) of the computed tomography (CT) classification using the American Thoracic Society (ATS)/Japanese Respiratory Society (JRS)/Latin American Thoracic Association (ALAT) HP guidelines, the lung fibrosis pattern was classified as either a usual interstitial pneumonia (UIP) pattern or a diffuse ground-glass opacity (GGO) pattern with subtle fibrosis. We investigated whether patients with the same imaging classification had different disease progression. We also attempted to reclassify these patients using the CHEST HP guidelines. Methods: Patients with fibrotic HP who had compatible CT pattern in the ATS/JRS/ALAT classification were investigated retrospectively. Results: With 62 patients in the UIP pattern group and 25 patients in the diffuse GGO pattern group, 87 patients with fibrotic HP had compatible pattern on CT. Annual forced vital capacity changes in the UIP pattern group and diffuse GGO pattern group were -2.7% and +3.3% (P=0.004), respectively. The 5-year survival rates in the UIP pattern group and diffuse GGO pattern group were 86% and 100% (P=0.02). In UIP pattern group in the ATS/JRS/ALAT classification, 27% patients were classified as typical fibrotic HP pattern in the CHEST guidelines. In the diffuse GGO pattern group, 52% patients were classified as typical pattern of fibrotic HP. In the CHEST guidelines, more patients in the GGO pattern were classified as typical pattern compared with those in the UIP pattern (P=0.02). Conclusions: The two patterns in compatible with fibrotic HP of CT classification using the ATS/JRS/ALAT HP guidelines had different disease progression. Typical patterns were more frequent in the CHEST guidelines than the ATS/JRS/ALAT guidelines.
