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

Although the role of eosinophils, mast cells, and T cells in asthma has long been recognized, several reports suggest that neutrophils may also be involved. In most studies of people with mild asthma, neutrophil numbers in the airways are not different from controls. However, in severe asthma, including asthma deaths, neutrophils are usually raised. Furthermore, most pediatric studies suggest that neutrophils are raised in some children, in particular in the young or infantile wheeze group. Measurements of inflammatory mediators in the airways of asthmatic subjects suggest that neutrophils are activated.
