[Usefulness of measurement of nitric oxide in exhaled air in diagnostics and treatment of allergic rhinitis and asthma in children and adolescents].
Review in Developmental period medicine. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Nitric oxide is produced by enzymes called nitric oxide synthases. It fulfills many important functions in the human body, but produced in excess amount has a proinflammatory activity. Fractional exhaled nitric oxide measurements are used in the diagnosis and monitoring of eosinophilic inflammation in the lower airways, but should not be used as an independent parameter to make a diagnosis of asthma or for the monitoring of asthma treatment. Evaluation of fractional exhaled nitric oxide concentrations is also used to determine the pathogenesis of symptoms in patients with rhinitis. In addition, they are helpful in detecting and monitoring eosinophilic inflammation in the lower respiratory tract that coexists with inflammation in the upper airways. Fractional exhaled nitric oxide concentrations may be abnormal (lowered or elevated) in other chronic diseases, such as cystic fibrosis, primary ciliary dyskinesia and inflammatory bowel diseases. Many factors, e.g. atopy, genetic polymorphisms of NOS, and the lipid profile affect the fractional exhaled nitric oxide measurement. Nasal nitric oxide measurement is useful in assessing the prevalence and severity of eosinophilic inflammation in the upper respiratory tract.
