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

Asthma is a unique form of chronic airway inflammation characterized by reversible airway obstruction, airway hyperresponsiveness and the production of specific inflammatory mediators. Local activation of both immune and nonimmune cells in the lung triggers the release of these immunomodulator molecules. Among them, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha, a multipotent pro-inflammatory mediator, plays a critical role in immunoregulation of asthma by contributing to bronchopulmonary inflammation and airway hyperresponsiveness. Blocking TNF-alpha activity has already shown outstanding efficacy in other chronic inflammatory diseases including rheumatoid arthritis, Crohn's disease, and psoriasis. The successful treatment of these other chronic inflammatory diseases provides hope that TNF inhibitors may have application for the treatment of asthma. Recent developments in animal models and clinical trials in patients with severe asthma provide strong support for the concept that blocking TNF-alpha activity represents a new approach in asthma therapy. In this review, we address the multipotential role of TNF-alpha in asthma and the efficacy and safety of TNF-alpha blocking agents in asthma.
