Changes in asthma self-management knowledge in inner city adolescents following developmentally sensitive self-management training.
Article in Patient education and counseling, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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 evaluate efficacy of a developmentally sensitive curriculum for improving asthma self-management knowledge, attitude, and self-efficacy in adolescents.
methodsFourty-two inner-city adolescents (ages 16-20) participated in a 12hour asthma self-management training program. Self-management knowledge, attitude toward asthma, and asthma-related self-efficacy were measured using short-answer tests before and after training. T-Tests were used to evaluate impact and effect sizes were calculated.
resultsMean pretest knowledge was 21.37/46 points; mean posttest was 36.33/46 points. Change from pre- to posttest was highly significant (t=10.34; p<0.0001), with a large effect size (d=1.68). Females improved more than males (18.66±8.58 vs. 12.29±8.13, p=0.039). Greatest effects were seen in awareness of long-term consequences of uncontrolled asthma (d=2.04), ability to recognize symptoms of life-threatening asthma (d=1.61), correctly monitor symptoms (d=1.49), and tell if asthma was uncontrolled (d=1.39). Asthma self-efficacy also improved significantly (p=0.017), particularly confidence in ability to correctly manage asthma, however improvements in attitude did not achieve statistical significance.
conclusionDevelopmentally appropriate training is effective in increasing critical self-management knowledge and self-efficacy in inner city adolescents, particularly females. PRACTICE IMPLICATIONS: Providers should screen carefully for symptoms and educate using developmentally appropriate training materials on ways to correctly monitor and manage symptom.
