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

purposeLate-onset non-infectious pulmonary complications (LONIPCs) represent significant sequelae of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), contributing to elevated non-relapse mortality rates. A comprehensive understanding of systemic conditions and prognostic indicators is essential for enhancing supportive care following onset. This study aims to compare respiratory and physical function between patients with LONIPCs and healthy controls, and to identify prognostic factors that influence survival outcomes in patients with LONIPCs.

methodsThis study included 41 LONIPCs patients admitted to Kyoto University Hospital for lung transplant evaluation. A healthy control group comprised matched living lung transplant donors. Comparisons included respiratory function tests, 6-min walk distance (6MWD), and erector spinae muscle cross-sectional area (ESMA). Multivariate Cox regression analysis was used to identify prognostic factors.

resultsLONIPCs patients demonstrated significantly reduced respiratory function and 6MWD compared to healthy controls. ESMA was also significantly lower in the patient group. Multivariate Cox regression revealed that decreased knee extensor strength and reduced ESMA were significant predictors of overall survival in patients with LONIPCs.

conclusionImpairments in respiratory and physical function are evident in LONIPCs patients. Modifiable factors such as lower limb muscle strength and skeletal muscle mass, particularly ESMA, are associated with prognosis and should be prioritized in rehabilitation strategies to improve patient outcomes.
