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

Background: Systemic inflammation plays a critical role in the pathogenesis of both chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and atrial fibrillation (AF). As an emerging biomarker reflecting systemic inflammatory status, the association between the systemic inflammation response index (SIRI) and the risk of AF in patients with COPD remains unclear. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the association between SIRI levels and the risk of AF in patients with COPD. Methods: In this multicenter cross-sectional study, we enrolled 1,133 hospitalized COPD patients from May 2021 to May 2024 at the First Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University and Quzhou People's Hospital. Patients were categorized into four groups based on SIRI quartiles. We used multivariate logistic regression, restricted cubic spline (RCS) analysis, and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves to evaluate the association between SIRI and AF risk. Subgroup, interaction, and sensitivity analyses were conducted to assess robustness and effect modification. Results: Among the study population, 225 patients (19.85%) had AF. After full adjustment, this cross-sectional analysis demonstrates that each 1-unit increase in SIRI was associated with a 4.6% higher AF risk (OR = 1.046, 95% CI: 1.018-1.075, Conclusion: Elevated SIRI levels are independently associated with an increased risk of AF in patients with COPD, especially among smokers. As a simple and readily accessible biomarker of low-grade systemic inflammation, SIRI may serve as an effective tool for assessing the risk of atrial fibrillation in patients with COPD.
