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

objectiveEosinophilic inflammation is thought to play a role in childhood asthma. Thus, examination of nasal eosinophils, instead of sputum, may be useful for the diagnosis of not only eosinophil-positive rhinitis but also persistent asthma. Nasal eosinophil examination is a routine for the diagnosis of nasal eosinophil-positive rhinitis in patients with rhinorrhea symptoms. This retrospective study investigated whether testing for nasal discharge eosinophils is useful for diagnosing childhood allergic asthma and whether nasal discharge eosinophils are predictive of persistent asthma.

methodsInfants and young children (

resultsThe evaluation of nasal discharge eosinophils in the asthma group showed a significantly higher positive rate in older age groups than in the 0-1-year-old age group (

conclusionsTesting for nasal discharge eosinophils with asthma symptoms increases with age. Nasal discharge eosinophils with asthma symptoms may be a predictive factor for persistent asthma. This trial is registered with UMIN Clinical Trials (registration number UMIN000030776).
