Managing outpatient asthma exacerbations.
Review in Current allergy and asthma reports, 2003. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Asthma is a chronic inflammatory disease that renders individuals prone to acute exacerbations. Several allergic and nonallergic triggers can incite an asthma exacerbation. The goals of managing an asthma exacerbation are prompt recognition, rapid reversal of airflow obstruction, prevention of relapses, and forestalling future episodes. A written asthma home-management plan is essential to minimize the severity of exacerbations. Short-acting b-agonists, oxygen, and corticosteroids are fundamental to early intervention in acute asthma exacerbation. Anticholinergics and magnesium sulfate can help nonresponders. Newer agents such as levalbuterol and long-acting b-agonists might be future additions to our armamentarium of drugs to treat acute exacerbations. Initiation or intensification of long-term controller therapy, treatment of co-morbid conditions, and avoidance of possible triggers along with prompt follow-up can help prevent relapses. Listening to patient preferences and concerns to enhance adherence and regular follow-up care can help prevent future episodes.
