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

backgroundExercise-induced bronchoconstriction (EIB) is a common cause of symptoms in a subgroup of asthmatic subjects. The pathobiology that makes this group of asthmatic subjects susceptible to bronchoconstriction after a brief period of exercise remains poorly understood.

objectiveWe sought to determine whether there are differences in lower airway inflammation and production of cytokines and eicosanoids between asthmatic subjects with and without EIB.

methodsTwo distinct groups of asthmatic subjects based on a priori definitions were identified, one with moderate-to-severe EIB and the other without significant bronchoconstriction after exercise challenge. Both groups met the definition of asthma on the basis of bronchodilator response, bronchial hyperresponsiveness, or both. A comparative immunopathology study was conducted by using induced sputum to identify differences in lower airway inflammation and production of cytokines and eicosanoids.

resultsThe groups had similar baseline lung function and bronchodilator response and did not have any asthma exacerbations within the prior year. The concentration of columnar epithelial cells was markedly higher in the group with EIB (1.4 x 10(5) vs 2.9 x 10(4) cells/mL, P=.01). The concentration of eosinophils was higher in the group with EIB (3.6 x 10(4) vs 4.9 x 10(3) cells/mL P=.04). Cysteinyl leukotrienes (CysLTs; 727.7 vs 151.9 pg/mL, P=.01) and the ratio of CysLTs to prostaglandin E(2) (1.85 vs 1.04, P=.002) in the airways were higher in the group with EIB.

conclusionInjury to the airway epithelium, overexpression of CysLTs, relative under production of prostaglandin E(2), and greater airway eosinophilia are distinctive immunopathologic features of asthma with EIB.
