Guidelines update: where do the new therapies fit in the management of asthma? NHLBI and WHO Global Initiative for Asthma.

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
The new leukotriene (LT) modifiers have been shown to be effective, safe and convenient 'controller' medications in patients with asthma. However, their use in asthma is recommended only in the most recent US guidelines, and then only as alternative long term controllers in patients with mild persistent asthma. In fact, as has now been shown in a number of studies, LT modifiers are effective in a variety of other asthma settings, and it is expected that expanded roles for these agents will be described in future asthma guidelines. Until then, clinicians aware of the advantages of individualising asthma therapy might consider LT modifiers for the diverse range of patients with asthma who are likely to benefit from the use of these agents.
