Analysis of treatment efficacy, tolerability, and survival of patients receiving antifibrotic therapy for progressive nonidiopathic pulmonary fibrosis.
Article in Annals of thoracic medicine. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundThere are still disagreements about diagnostic criteria and treatment of progressive pulmonary fibrosis (PPF). Real-life data and survival analyses have a guiding role in clarifying this issue.
methodsIn this multicenter retrospective cohort study, real-life data of adult patients diagnosed with PPF and treated with antifibrotics for at least 6 months were examined.
resultsOf the 222 patients, 161 were treated with Nintedanib (N) and 61 with Pirfenidone (P). The most common PPF subtype was connective tissue disease-related interstitial lung disease (CTD-ILD) (53.2%). The progression rate was significantly higher in patients with usual interstitial pneumonia (UIP) (
conclusionPPF subtypes have significant differences in terms of prognosis and survival. The effect of AF drugs on progression varies, especially among radiological patterns. An individualized approach is required in the diagnosis, follow-up, and treatment of patients with PPF.
