Managing wheeze in preschool children: How difficult can it be?
Review in Sudanese journal of paediatrics, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Wheeze is a common symptom in infants and preschool children. Up to 30% of children wheeze at least once before the age of 3 years and 2% of those have it severe enough to warrant hospital admission. Not only parents but also physicians have difficulty in recognizing wheeze. Wrong diagnosis of the underlying condition leads to inappropriate and unnecessary management and patient morbidity. Asthma is the commonest underlying condition in children with wheeze, but the differential diagnosis is quite broad and a systematic approach including a good clinical history, thorough physical examination and appropriate investigations are essential to reach the accurate diagnosis.
