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

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a progressive inflammatory lung disease with limited clinical therapeutic effects to suspend its progression. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) possess regulatory effects in various diseases. However, circRNA-involved regulatory mechanisms in COPD are largely unknown. This study reveals the mechanism of SMURF1-mediated BECN1 ubiquitination, which is competed by Ub-K48 and Ub-K63, driving the circPDE4D-regulated autophagy. Here, circPDE4D is first identified as a downregulated circRNA in COPD. Among patients with COPD, the lower expression of circPDE4D is associated with the reduced lung function values of FEV
