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 lung disease with high morbidity and mortality worldwide. Although several mechanisms to account for deleterious immune effects were proposed, molecular description for the underlying alveolar structural alterations for COPD is lacking. Here, silencing of α1,6-fucosyltransferase (Fut8), the enzyme for core-fucosylation and highly expressed in lung stem cells, resulted in alveolar structural changes in lung organoids, recapitulating COPD. Site-specific mass spectrometry analysis demonstrated that the secreted protein acidic and rich in cysteine (SPARC), which binds collagen, contains a core-fucosylation site in its VCSNDN
