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

backgroundFrequent exacerbations of bronchiectasis lead to poor quality of life, impaired lung function, and higher mortality rates. This study aims to evaluate the risk factors associated with readmission within one year due to acute exacerbation of bronchiectasis (AEB).

methodsA retrospective cohort study was performed on 260 patients with bronchiectasis who were hospitalized in the respiratory and critical care department of a tertiary hospital in China. Univariate and multivariate Cox analyses were used to evaluate the risk factors for readmission within one year.

resultsReadmission within one year was found in 44.6% of 260 patients hospitalized with acute exacerbation of bronchiectasis. The risk factors associated with readmission included age over 65 years (HR = 3.66; 95% CI: 2.30 to 5.85), BMI < 18.5 kg/m

conclusionsPatients with bronchiectasis have a high rate of readmission, which is linked to varieties of risk factors, and identifying these risk factors is importance for effectively managing patients with bronchiectasis.
