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

backgroundEnvironmental risk factors could contribute to the development of exercise-induced pulmonary hemorrhage (EIPH) in racing Thoroughbreds. HYPOTHESIS/

objectivesTo identify environmental risk factors that might contribute to differences in EIPH prevalence and severity across 12 Thoroughbred racetracks in the United States. ANIMALS: Eight hundred fifteen 2-year-old and 122 >2-year-old Thoroughbred racehorses.

methodsProspective blinded observational study. Videoendoscopy was performed 30-60 min post-race. Three observers independently assigned an EIPH grade to each videorecording, and prevalence and severity of EIPH were determined. Multivariable logistic regression assessed relationships between EIPH prevalence and severity, respectively, and independent variables including furosemide administration, race distance and surface, and lifetime race number (LRN). P ≤ .05 was considered significant.

resultsOne thousand one hundred ninety-two videorecordings received EIPH severity grades from 12 racetracks in 10 different states and 3 time zones. Ambient temperature (AT) was negatively associated with EIPH prevalence (OR = 0.82, 95% CI, 0.69-0.98; P = .03) and severity (OR = 0.79, 95% CI, 0.63-0.99; P = .04). Furosemide administration (OR = 0.04, 95% CI, 0.006-0.33; P = .002), turf (OR = 0.64, 95% CI, 0.43-0.95; P = .027) and all weather (OR = 0.03, 95% CI, 0.004-0.26; P = .001) track surfaces, and LRN (OR = 1.07, 95% CI, 1.01-1.12; P = .012) were associated with occurrence of EIPH. Two-year-olds racing in bad air (air quality index [AQI] > 100) had more severe EIPH than those racing in AQI < 50 (OR = 2.78, 95% CI, 1.06-7.29; P = .04). CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL IMPORTANCE: AT, AQI, LRN, and surface type might be associated with EIPH prevalence and severity between American racetracks.
