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 study the association of blood lipids with the development, clinical stage, allergic condition, and pulmonary function of asthma.
methodsA total of 56 children with asthma who attended the hospital between October 2016 and March 2017 were enrolled as the asthma group, and 46 children who underwent physical examination as the healthy control group. According to the clinical manifestations, the children with asthma were divided into acute exacerbation group (n=24) and chronic persistent group (n=32). According to the results of skin prick test (SPT) and serum IgE measurement, the children with asthma were divided into non-allergic asthma group (n=16) and allergic asthma group (n=38). Fasting blood lipid levels were measured in both asthma and control groups. Pulmonary function tests were performed for asthmatic children.
resultsThere were no significant differences in blood lipid levels between the asthma and control groups (P>0.05). The acute exacerbation group had significantly lower serum levels of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) and total cholesterol compared with the control group and the chronic persistent group (P<0.05). The allergic asthma group had a significantly lower serum HDL level than the non-allergic asthma group (P<0.05). In asthmatic children aged 6-13 years, the ratios of the measured values to the predicted values for forced vital capacity, peak expiratory flow, and maximal expiratory flow at 50% of vital capacity had a linear regression relationship with HDL and were positively correlated with HDL (P<0.05). Forced expiratory volume in one second and maximal mid-expiratory flow had a linear regression relationship with both HDL and LDL and were positively correlated with them (P<0.05).
conclusionsBlood lipids are associated with the clinical stage, allergic condition, and lung function of childhood asthma. This indicates that blood lipids may be involved in several aspects of the pathogenesis of childhood asthma.
