Effectiveness of respiratory care modalities on bio-physiological parameters among COPD patients at a tertiary care hospital in Chennai, India.
Article in Bioinformation, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is one of the prevalent global health problems, with chronic respiratory symptoms and airflow limitation due to anatomic abnormalities primarily in the airways and alveoli. Therefore it is of interest to evaluate the effectiveness of respiratory care modalities on bio-physiological parameters in COPD patients at a tertiary care hospital in Chennai. Using a quasi-experimental design with pre-test and post-test control groups, 80 subjects were selected through non-probability purposive sampling. The intervention, lasting 10-15 minutes and administered thrice daily over four weeks, aimed to enhance physiological parameters. Results indicated a statistically significant improvement, with the mean respiratory issue score decreasing from 7.45 to 4.80 (p < 0.05). These findings suggest that the respiratory care modalities effectively improved bio-physiological parameters in COPD patients, demonstrating significant benefits from the interventions. Thus, respiratory care can enhance the health status of individuals with COPD.
