Evaluation of the relationship between intercostal muscle oxygenation measured by near-infrared spectroscopy and exercise capacity in group E COPD patients.
Article in Pflugers Archiv : European journal of physiology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) can be used to demonstrate muscle metabolism and oxygenation. NIRS-based oximeters enable the noninvasive measurement of static and dynamic muscle oxygenation. This study aimed to evaluate the relationship between NIRS readings and exercise capacity in group E COPD patients. The prospective study included 40 patients with group E COPD who presented to our outpatient clinic between May 2021 and June 2022. The patients were evaluated with pulmonary function testing, 6-Minute Walk Test (6MWT), echocardiography, and dyspnea and quality of life assessments. NIRS muscle oxygen saturation (SmO
