Asthmatics without rhinitis have more fixed airway obstruction than those with concurrent rhinitis.

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
purposeRhinitis and asthma usually occur together. There are increasing evidences that allergic rhinitis (AR) may influence the clinical course of asthma. The aim of this study is to evaluate clinical parameters and therapeutic response in patients with between asthma and asthma with AR.
methodsFour-hundred eighty-five patients with asthma and 428 asthmatics with AR, who had lesser than 50 years old and smoked less than 10 pack-years were recruited. We compared FEV1 and FEV1/FVC following bronchodilator, atopy, IgE, emphysema on HRCT, and aspirin intolerance between two groups. Also we compared physiologic fixed airway obstruction defined using FEV1/FVC and FEV1 less than 75% following anti-asthmatic drug for 1 year.
results46.8% (428/913) asthmatics suffered from AR. There were no differences of total IgE, body mass index, PC20, sputum eosinophils and emphysema on HRCT between two groups. The age in asthmatics was higher than that in those with AR. FEV1/FVC was lower in asthmatics than in those with AR. The prevalence of atopy was higher in asthmatics with AR than in asthmatics. Aspirin intolerance was higher in asthmatics with AR than in asthmatics (42/218 vs 13/109, P=0.001). Fixed airway obstruction were more observed in asthmatics than in those with AR (39/319 vs 28/355, P=0.001) after anti-asthmatic drug for 1 year.
conclusionsAsthmatics with AR had more atopy and aspirin intolerance than asthmatics, and asthmatics had poor response to anti-inflammatory drugs than those with concurrent rhinitis, indicating that asthmatics have more fixed airway obstruction than those with concurrent rhinitis.
