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

backgroundLung diseases belong to the most common acute and chronic childhood diseases. With specific diagnostics and therapy the outcome of many congenital and acquired pulmonary diseases in children and adults can be substantially improved.

objectiveThe aim of this review is the presentation and evaluation of important lung diseases in children taking recent developments into consideration. MATERIAL AND

methodsThis article presents a review of the literature on selected acute and chronic lung diseases in children and adolescents.

resultsAcute pneumonia remains one of the most frequent causes of mortality in children worldwide. Antibiotic treatment has reduced the morbidity and mortality in Western industrialized countries; however, the treatment of complications, such as pleural empyema and lung abscesses remains challenging. With a prevalence of 10 %, asthma has evolved into the most common chronic disease in children and adolescents in Germany. Using anti-inflammatory inhalation therapy, effective control of asthma symptoms can be achieved in most patients. Cystic fibrosis (CF) remains the most common fatal inherited disease among Caucasians. More than 90 % of the mortality and morbidity of CF are caused by an early onset and progressive chronic obstructive lung disease. Approval of the first causal mutation-specific pharmacotherapy for a subgroup of patients with CF represents a milestone in individualized therapy of lung diseases. The pathogenesis of other rare chronic lung diseases including interstitial lung diseases (ILD) is still mostly unknown.

conclusionContinuous improvement in the diagnostics and therapy is crucial to further improve the management and outcome of acute and chronic lung diseases in children. Pediatric pulmonology, as an interdisciplinary subspecialty at the interface of pediatrics, pulmonology and infectious diseases, plays a key role in the translation of scientific progress into clinical practice.
