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

Objectives: To compare exhaled nitric oxide (eNO) levels between patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and healthy controls, and to investigate factors influencing eNO measurements. Methods: The study included 115 patients with acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD), 89 patients with stable COPD, and 70 healthy medical checkups, and the basic data and eNO of the three groups were collected. Results: Concentration of alveolar Nitric Oxide (CaNO) was higher in the AECOPD group than in the COPD and healthy control groups, nitric oxide concentration in exhaled breath at a flow rate of 200 ml/s (FeNO Conclusion: The CaNO levels in patients with AECOPD were significantly elevated compared to those with stable COPD and healthy controls. Smoking and the use of ICS were identified as key influencing factors for both FeNO
