Obesity and severe asthma.
Review in Allergology international : official journal of the Japanese Society of Allergology, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 61 papers, 4 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
Obesity is an important global health issue for both children and adults. Obesity increases the prevalence and incidence of asthma and also increases the risk for severe asthma. Here we describe the features of severe asthma phenotypes for which obesity is a defining characteristic, including steroid resistance, airway inflammation, and co-morbidities. We also review current concepts regarding the mechanistic basis for the impact of obesity in severe asthma, including possible roles for vitamin D deficiency, systemic inflammation, and the microbiome. Finally, we describe data indicating a role for diet, weight loss, and exercise in the treatment of severe asthma with obesity. Better understanding of the mechanistic basis for the role of obesity in severe asthma could lead to new therapeutic options for this population.
