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

Background: COPD is a heterogeneous condition characterised by persistent, poorly reversible airflow obstruction. While some patients experience accelerated decline in forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV Methods: We analysed 101 radiomic features from 1759 chest CT scans of COPD patients in the ECLIPSE study. Unsupervised consensus clustering identified six mutually exclusive radiomic clusters, and we derived six corresponding average patient score clusters (APSC1-6). Random coefficient models assessed associations between each APSC and baseline clinical characteristics, FEV Results: Radiomic scores were associated with multiple baseline clinical features. Higher APSC2 (-5.3 mL·year Conclusions: Unsupervised CT radiomic analysis identifies distinct COPD endophenotypes associated with variability in FEV
