Passive leg movement in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease: evidence of locomotor muscle vascular dysfunction.
Article in Journal of applied physiology (Bethesda, Md. : 1985), 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers.
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.
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), characterized by pulmonary dysfunction, is now also recognized to be associated with free radical-mediated vascular dysfunction. However, as previous investigations have utilized the brachial artery flow-mediated dilation technique, whether such vascular dysfunction exists in the locomotor muscle of patients with COPD remains unclear. Therefore, in patients with COPD (
