Reliability and predictors of resistive load detection in children with persistent asthma: a multivariate approach.

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
objectiveResistive load detection tasks enable analysis of individual differences in psychophysical outcomes. The purpose of this study was to determine both the reliability and predictors of resistive load detection in children with persistent asthma who completed multiple testing sessions.
methodsBoth University of North Carolina (UNC) Charlotte and Ohio University institutional review boards approved the research protocol. The detection of inspiratory resistive loads was evaluated in 75 children with asthma between 8 and 15 years of age. Each child participated in four experimental sessions that occurred approximately once every 2 weeks. Multivariate analyses were used to delineate predictors of task performance.
resultsReliability of resistive load detection was determined for each child, and predictors of load detection outcomes were investigated in two groups of children: those who performed reliably in all four sessions (n = 31) and those who performed reliably in three or fewer sessions (n = 44). Three factors (development, symptoms, and compliance) accounted for 66.3% of the variance among variables that predicted 38.7% of the variance in load detection outcomes (Multiple R = 0.62, p = 0.004) and correctly classified performance as reliable or less reliable in 80.6% of the children, χ(2)(12) = 28.88, p = 0.004.
conclusionsCognitive and physical development, appraisal of symptom experiences, and adherence-related behaviors (1) account for a significant proportion of the interrelationships among variables that affect perception of airflow obstruction in children with asthma and (2) differentiate between children who perform more or less reliably in a resistive load detection task.
