Review in International journal of molecular sciences, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT07339280 ("The Effect of Probiotics on the Degree of Dyspnea, Lung Function, and Inflammatory Mediators in Patients With Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease), which is not on this map. Cited by 46 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled it.

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.

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.

Abstract

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) plays a significant role in global morbidity and mortality rates, typified by progressive airflow restriction and lingering respiratory symptoms. Recent explorations in molecular biology have illuminated the complex mechanisms underpinning COPD pathogenesis, providing critical insights into disease progression, exacerbations, and potential therapeutic interventions. This review delivers a thorough examination of the latest progress in molecular research related to COPD, involving fundamental molecular pathways, biomarkers, therapeutic targets, and cutting-edge technologies. Key areas of focus include the roles of inflammation, oxidative stress, and protease-antiprotease imbalances, alongside genetic and epigenetic factors contributing to COPD susceptibility and heterogeneity. Additionally, advancements in omics technologies-such as genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, and metabolomics-offer new avenues for comprehensive molecular profiling, aiding in the discovery of novel biomarkers and therapeutic targets. Comprehending the molecular foundation of COPD carries substantial potential for the creation of tailored treatment strategies and the enhancement of patient outcomes. By integrating molecular insights into clinical practice, there is a promising pathway towards personalized medicine approaches that can improve the diagnosis, treatment, and overall management of COPD, ultimately reducing its global burden.
