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

Rationale: Patients with COPD on long-term oxygen therapy (LTOT) have an unmet need for oxygen adjustments during sleep, rest, and activity, documented by continuous monitoring of oxygen saturation (SpO Methods: The intervention period involved four days of automated oxygen titration targeting a SpO Results: Twelve patients (8 men, mean (SD) age 72.9 (5.5) years) on LTOT with an oxygen dose of 2.0 (0.8) L/min were included. Each patient provided more than 217,000 paired SpO Conclusion: Automated oxygen titration is feasible in the home setting, achieving more time with normoxia, but it required a wide flow range and continuous SpO2 monitoring. The patients reported a clinically relevant reductions in COPD symptoms measured with CCQ. The clinical importance of controlling SpO
