Review in Current opinion in pulmonary medicine, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT07603206 (Replacing Gas Stoves With Portable Electric Appliances to Improve Indoor Air Quality and Asthma Control), which is not on this map. Cited by 12 papers.

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.

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.

Abstract

purpose of reviewOver the past decade, the concept of asthma control as distinct from asthma severity has been clearly defined. Well controlled asthma is the goal of therapy in all asthma patients. This review is a comprehensive description of the tools currently available for a methodical assessment of different aspects of asthma control in clinical practice and research. RECENT

findingsSeveral questionnaires for assessing asthma control have been extensively validated in adults. In children, validation data are less extensive. Considerable overlap exists between asthma control measures and measures of asthma-specific quality of life. Asthma-specific quality-of-life questionnaires have been used as primary outcome measures in major clinical trials evaluating asthma therapy. Biomarkers that reflect eosinophilic inflammation of the airways are used as intermediate outcome measures to reflect the biological basis of asthma control. There is some controversy, however, over which biomarkers are best incorporated into therapeutic algorithms that attempt to achieve maximal asthma control while minimizing treatment intensity. SUMMARY: In designing clinical studies to evaluate different asthma therapies, researchers will find this review to be a useful resource in terms of choosing the appropriate tool for assessing asthma control. This is also a valuable resource for a methodical assessment of response to asthma therapy in routine clinical care.
