Assessment of Metabolic Syndrome in Patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease: A 6-Month Follow-Up Study.

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
BACKGROUND/
objectivesThe association between chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a common one, with long-term therapeutic and prognostic impact. In view of the high pulmonary and cardiovascular morbidity and mortality, self-management contributes to decreasing the risk of an acute cardiac event or pulmonary decompensation.
methodsWe conducted a prospective cohort study on 100 patients admitted to Iasi Clinical Rehabilitation Hospital who were divided into two groups according to the presence (67 patients) or absence (33 patients) of MetS. All patients benefited from multidisciplinary counseling sessions on their active role in improving modifiable cardiovascular risk factors and thus increasing quality of life. The aim of this study was to examine the impact of metabolic syndrome on lung function and the role of self-management in a 6-month follow-up period. The demographic, anthropometric, cardiovascular risk factors, and respiratory function were analyzed at baseline and at 6 months.
resultsThe presence of MetS was associated with higher fasting blood glucose (
conclusionsIn our study, MetS is a common comorbidity in patients with COPD and is associated with higher BMI, fasting glucose, and triglycerides but not with the inflammatory parameters. A mixed pulmonary-cardiovascular rehabilitation intervention leads to improvement in various parameters in both female and male COPD patients.
