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

The purpose of this review is to discuss the effect of daily inhaled corticosteroids (ICSs) on the height of children with asthma. The effect of ICSs on growth and height is dependent on the dose and the therapeutic index of the ICS; however, the effect on final adult height was not clear until recently. New data suggest that if growth suppression occurs with the use of ICSs in children, it is sustained, but not cumulative over the years. The observed reduction in the final adult height is small and does not outweigh the benefits of ICSs, and the growth effect may be minimized by use of newer ICSs and other approaches for management of asthma in children with mild to moderate asthma.
