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
Introduction: The contribution of respiratory models to understanding and predicting functional capacity abnormalities in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) has not yet been investigated. Purpose: The aims of this study were: (1) To investigate the associations between the extended Resistance-Inertance-Compliance (eRIC) and the fractional-order (FrOr) models with changes in Glittre-ADL and handgrip tests and; (2) To evaluate the accuracy of these models in predicting abnormal functional capacity in COPD. Patients and Methods: The study was carried out in a group of 40 adults with COPD and a control group of 40 healthy individuals, both evaluated by respiratory oscillometry, spirometry, Glittre-ADL test and handgrip test. eRIC and fractional order models were also used to quantify biomechanical changes and obtain physiological information. The ability of model parameters to predict abnormal functional performance was evaluated by investigating the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC). Results: Inverse relationships were observed between central airway resistance from the eRIC model and the handgrip test (p<0.005), while respiratory compliance (C) was directly related with handgrip strength test and inversely associated with the Glittre-ADL test time (p<0.05). The FrOr model showed direct associations among respiratory damping (G) and elastance with the Glittre-ADL test (p<0.02), while significant inverse relationships were observed with the handgrip test (p<0.05). Modeling parameters (peripheral resistance, total resistance and hysteresivity) achieved high prediction accuracy (AUC>0.90) in predicting non-normal functional capacity in COPD assessed by the Glittre-ADL test. Considering abnormal changes evaluated by the handgrip test as a reference, C (AUC=0.810) and G (AUC=0.786) obtained the highest predictive accuracies. Conclusion: Parameters obtained from the eRIC and the fractional order models are associated with non-normal exercise performance in COPD and may help predict poor functional performance in these patients.
