Rationale and clinical results of inhibiting interleukin-5 for the treatment of severe asthma.
Review in Current allergy and asthma reports, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Severe asthma is responsible for considerable morbidity and a high proportion of the healthcare costs attributable to asthma. Management is not straightforward as the clinical, pathological and physiological features are heterogeneous and the relationships between these features are poorly understood. In recent years significant progress has been made in understanding this heterogeneity and eosinophilic asthma has emerged as a potentially clinically important phenotype because treatment with monoclonal antibodies against IL-5 is effective. This has required a change in our understanding of the role of eosinophilic airway inflammation in airways disease and the developments of reliable biomarkers of eosinophilic airway inflammation. We will review these developments and describe the clinical experience so far with treatment with monoclonal antibiotics against IL-5.
