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

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is characterized by persistent respiratory symptoms and airflow limitation. Acute exacerbation of COPD (AECOPD) is an acute worsening of respiratory symptoms, which needs additional treatment and can result in worsening health status, increasing risks of hospitalization and mortality. Therefore, it is necessary to early recognize and diagnose exacerbations of COPD. This review introduces the updated definition of COPD exacerbations, the current clinical assessment tools, and the current potential biomarkers. The application of mobile health care in COPD management for early identification and diagnosis is also included in this review.
