Association of secondhand smoke exposure with asthma symptoms, medication use, and healthcare utilization among asthmatic adolescents.
Article in The Journal of asthma : official journal of the Association for the Care of Asthma, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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 investigate the association between secondhand smoke exposure (SHSe) and asthma symptoms, medication use, and emergency department (ED)/urgent care (UC) utilization among adolescents.
methodsWe performed a secondary cross-sectional analysis of Population Assessment of Tobacco and Health Study Wave 2 (2014-2015) including asthmatic adolescents (N = 2198). Logistic regression models and Poisson regression models were built.
resultsParticipants with SHSe ≥1 hour in the past 7 days were at increased risk of reporting shortness of breath and harder to exercise aOR, 1.22; 95% CI, 1.04-1.43), wheezing (aOR, 1.26; 95% CI, 1.01-1.56), wheezing disturbing sleep (aOR, 1.88; 95% CI, 1.35-2.63), wheezing during/after exercise (aOR, 1.41; 95% CI, 1.19-1.66), wheezing limiting speech (aOR, 2.11; 95% CI, 1.55-2.86), dry cough at night (aOR, 1.86; 95% CI, 1.54-2.24), and asthma symptoms disturbing sleep (aOR, 2.25; 95% CI, 1.81-2.79). Participants with SHSe ≥1 hour were more likely to take asthma medications (aOR, 1.25; 95% CI, 1.03-1.52), including steroids (aOR, 1.86; 95% CI, 1.19-2.91), oxygen therapy (aOR, 2.88; 95% CI, 1.82-4.54), and controlling medications (aOR, 1.50; 95% CI, 1.24-1.82). Symptoms and medications varied by living with a smoker and home SHSe. Participants with SHSe were at increased risk of having a higher number of asthma attacks that required steroid use. Participants who lived with a smoker and had home SHSe were at increased risk of having higher ED/UC visits for asthma.
conclusionsSHSe reduction efforts are needed for asthmatic adolescents, and EDs/UCs are promising venues.
