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

objectiveTo investigate the effect of fluvastatin (Flu) combined with corbrin capsule (CC) on the pulmonary function (PF) in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

methodsTotally, 156 patients with COPD treated in our hospital were assigned: 86 patients in the research group (RG), who were treated with Flu plus CC, and 70 patients in the control group (CG), who were treated with CC plus conventional drugs. The changes in inflammatory factors, including interleukin-6 (IL-6), interleukin-8 (IL-8), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and procalcitonin (PCT), of the two groups before and after treatment were compared. The complications, psychological status, quality of life (QOL) and recurrence rate of the two groups were analyzed.

resultsThe total effective rate in the RG was dramatically higher than that in the CG (P<0.05). Compared with the factors in the CG, the PF in the RG notably increased after treatment (P<0.05); the blood gas levels were noticeably better (P<0.05); and the level of inflammatory factors decreased (P<0.05). The incidence of complications in the RG was noticeably lower than that in the CG (P<0.05). The psychological status and QOL in the RG were remarkably better than those in the CG (P<0.05), and the recurrence rate within one year of diagnosis was lower than that in the CG (P<0.05).

conclusionFlu combined with CC is effective and safe in the treatment of COPD and can effectively improve the PF and the QOL of patients.
