1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Asthma remains one of the most common respiratory diseases in both children and adults affecting up to 10% of the US population. Asthma is characterized by persistent symptoms, airway inflammation, airflow limitation and frequent exacerbations. Eosinophils are a key immune cell present in a large majority of asthmatics and their presence and dysregulation are clinically associated with more severe asthma. Surfactant protein A (SP-A) provides a first-line of defense in pulmonary innate immunity by virtue of its role in pathogen opsonization. SP-A is known to specifically bind to
