Association between body mass index and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease in young individuals: a nationwide population‑based cohort study.
Article in Scientific reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Body mass index (BMI) is associated with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) risk. We investigated the association between BMI and the risk of COPD among young individuals. Using the Korean National Health Information Database, we screened individuals aged 20-39 years who participated in the national health examination between 2009 and 2012. We identified 6,304,769 eligible individuals, and 13,784 had newly developed COPD. BMI was categorized according to the Asian BMI criteria. We performed multivariate Cox proportional hazards models to estimate the adjusted hazard ratio (aHR) of risk factors for COPD development. Their mean age was 30.8 ± 5.0 years, and 3,732,656 (59.2%) were men. The incidence rate for developing COPD was 0.22/1,000 person-years. Compared to individuals with normal BMI (18.5-22.9 kg/m
