Acute cough in Italian children: parents' beliefs, approach to treatment, and the family impact.
Article in Multidisciplinary respiratory medicine, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
backgroundAcute cough is the most common symptom among children in primary care, but the impact of cough episodes was never investigated in Italian families.
methodsA cross-sectional telephone survey was conducted on a representative sample of Italian families, randomly selected from general population; a specific and validated questionnaire was used.
resultsThe sample (604 calls) was uniform by geographical distribution, and by children age and gender. Mean cough episode was 3.1/year, they were short lasting (only 4.7% > 2 weeks). Independent predictors of children cough episodes were parents' active smoking habit and work (
conclusionsParents' actions against cough episodes were variable, depending on their beliefs, smoking habit, and occupational status. The parents' perceived efficacy of usual prescriptions is poor, and their willingness to pay out-of-pocket for an "effective remedy" against cough is high. The interest for alternative treatments is not negligible in these circumstances.
