Long-Term Home Non-Invasive Ventilation in Patients with Severe COPD with Hypercapnic Respiratory Failure: Impact on Long-Term Survival, Exacerbations and Mortality Related Factors.

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
Background: Non-invasive ventilation (NIV) improves outcomes in acute life-threatening hypercapnic respiratory failure due to exacerbations of COPD (ECOPD), but the benefits of long-term home NIV (LTH-NIV) for managing hypercapnic chronic respiratory failure (CRF) in COPD remain unclear. Purpose: 1) To assess the long-term survival of severe COPD patients with hypercapnic CRF started on LTH-NIV and mortality related factors; 2) To evaluate the impact of LTH-NIV on ECOPD and hospital admissions at follow-up. Patients and Methods: COPD patients who started LTH-NIV between January 2009 and December 2018 were included. Medical records and clinical outcomes were retrospectively reviewed. Results: Forty-four COPD patients (mean [SD] age 66.5 [10.4] years, 81.8% men) with severe airflow obstruction (mean [SD] FEV Conclusion: The survival rate of COPD patients with hypercapnic CRF on LTH-NIV is currently high (>50% at 5 years). Adaptation to LTH-NIV in the stable phase is the most important prognostic determinant and should be considered especially in patients with more hospitalisations and lower FVC values. Initiation of LTH-NIV reduces moderate to severe ECOPD at follow-up.
