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

There is limited research on the impact of a physiotherapy-guided rehabilitation program (PGRP) on lung structure in systemic sclerosis (SSc). Lung ultrasound (LUS) has been used for over a decade to identify interstitial lung disease associated with SSc (SSc-ILD). This study aims to evaluate the impact of a PGRP on LUS signals in women with SSc-ILD and women without ILD (SSc-wILD). This is a longitudinal quasi-experimental study that included 33 women with SSc. The results show that changes in LUS were observed in 22 participants, especially B-lines > two. Before the PGRP the median of B-lines > two was three (0-7), while after the PGRP it was three (0-6) (
