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

Ageing significantly impacts lung function and increases susceptibility to chronic lung diseases. The lung is a complex organ with multiple cell types that undergo cellular age-related perturbations or hallmarks. As knowledge of ageing mechanisms has progressed, we have a better understanding how intracellular adaptations impact cellular crosstalk and integrate to increase the susceptibility to age-related diseases in the lung. Herein, we discuss the prospects of exhaustion of lung progenitor cells, disrupted lung cell plasticity, perturbation in fibroblasts, impaired adaptive immune responses and alterations in lung microenvironment in the promotion of ageing and age-related lung diseases. Additionally, the ageing process trajectory of the lung depends on a combination of biological, genetic, metabolic, biomechanical and sociobehavioural factors that range from protective phenotypes to accelerated ageing phenotypes. We propose the concept of AgEnOmics, which expands the temporal dimension of lung ageing by distinguishing between chronological ageing and accelerated lung ageing phenotypes. Based on this concept, we define biomarkers of biological ageing that will help to define accelerated ageing and early interventions in biological ageing-related lung diseases.
