All-cause and cause-specific mortality in individuals with COPD in China: a 16-year follow-up cohort study.
Article in European journal of epidemiology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
The prevalence of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is rising in China, yet population-based evidence on COPD-related mortality risk remains limited. This study examined the association between prevalent COPD and all-cause and cause-specific mortality in a large Chinese cohort. 484,301 adults aged 30 to 79 years who received spirometry at the baseline of the China Kadoorie Biobank Study (2004-2008) were included. COPD was defined as FEV
