Comparing the CO
Article in BMJ open respiratory research, 2025. 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
introductionInhalers for asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are essential therapeutic interventions; however, they contribute significantly to healthcare-related CO
methodsThis cross-sectional analysis used regional healthcare prescription data for inhalers dispensed in South Tyrol in 2021 and 2022, encompassing approximately 540 000 inhabitants. CO
findingsA total of 100 778 inhalers were dispensed in 2021 (45 031 MDIs, 55 747 DPIs) and 101 334 in 2022 (49 711 MDIs, 51 623 DPIs). MDIs were responsible for approximately 1000-1100 tonnes of CO
conclusionsUsage of DPIs over currently used MDIs in patients who can use them could mitigate healthcare-associated global warming potential, providing a viable strategy for climate change mitigation in respiratory care. Development of low-global warming potential MDIs is a complementary strategy.
