Clinical Significance of the Dynamic Changes in Serum Eotaxin, Interleukin 13 and Total IgE in Children with Bronchial Asthma.
Article in Iranian journal of pediatrics, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
objectiveTo determine the serum levels of eotaxin, IL-13 and total IgE (TIgE) in asthmatic children during the acute and clinical remission periods, as well as the changes in pulmonary function to determine their roles, relationships and clinical significance during asthma exacerbation.
methodsA total of 30 asthmatic children and 22 healthy children were enrolled in the study. The serum eotaxin and IL-13 levels were detected using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and the TIgE level was detected using a fluorescent enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The asthmatic children were subjected to pulmonary function tests.
findingsThe serum eotaxin, IL-13 and TIgE levels of the asthmatic children during the acute period significantly differed from those during clinical remission. The serum eotaxin, IL-13 and TIgE levels of the asthmatic children during both periods significantly differed from those of healthy children (P<0.001). The serum eotaxin levels during the acute and clinical remission periods were positively correlated with serum IL-13 and with TIgE, and serum IL-13 was correlated with serum TIgE. The pulmonary function indices of asthmatic children during the acute period significantly differed from those during clinical remission (P<0.001). The serum eotaxin and IL-13 levels in the asthmatic children were positively correlated with the forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) and the peak expiratory flow (PEF) during the acute and clinical remission periods (P<0.05). However, the serum TIgE levels in asthmatic children were not significantly correlated with the FEV1 and PEF during both periods (P>0.05).
conclusionSerum TIgE, IL-13 and eotaxin influence each other during exacerbation of bronchial asthma and influence the corresponding pathophysiologic changes. Serum IL-13 and eotaxin could be used as markers for evaluating the severity of bronchial asthma.
