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

Assessing airway inflammation is important for investigating the underlying mechanisms of many lung diseases, including asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), bronchiectasis, primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) and cystic fibrosis. A growing interest has recently directed toward non-invasive methods for the assessment of airway inflammation. Measurement of exhaled nitric oxide in exhaled air is an exciting innovative technique that gives new insights into the pathophysiology of lung disease and asthma in particular, with many potential clinical applications. Careful standardisation of measurement techniques has facilitated the use of this new measurement in paediatric respiratory medicine. Non-invasiveness and instantaneous results potentially make it a suitable instrument for use in children starting from the age of 4, with useful applications both in asthma diagnosis and monitoring.
