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) represents one of the most frequent causes of hospital readmissions and in-hospital mortality. One in five patients requires readmission within 30 days of discharge following an admission for exacerbation. These 'early readmissions' increase morbidity and mortality, as patients often do not recover their baseline lung function. The identification of factors associated with increased risk has been a major focus of research in recent years. Studies describe patient-related predictors, although some studies also suggest that better-resourced centres provide superior care.
