What long-term changes in lung function can tell us about asthma control.
Review in Current allergy and asthma reports, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Asthma severity is typically classified according to lung function, but asthma control in relation to lung function is often harder to define. In this paper, we will review how lung function measured at rest, as well as over time, relates to asthma control. We will explore not only conventional lung function as measured by spirometry, such as peak expiratory flow and forced expiratory volume in 1 s, but also more sophisticated measurements of peripheral airway function related to respiratory system impedance and ventilation heterogeneity. In particular, we will review the emerging area of assessing the fluctuation of lung function over time and how it may correlate to both past and future asthma control.
