Hypertension and diabetes mellitus as risk factors for asthma in Korean adults: the Sixth Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey.
Article in International health, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 26 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
backgroundAsthma is a chronic inflammatory disease that may associate with other chronic diseases such as hypertension and diabetes. We observed the effects of blood pressure (BP), fasting blood glucose (FBG), haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) and insulin on asthma in Korean adults.
methodsData from 5045 adults were taken from the 2015 Sixth Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey and analysed using a multiple logistic regression model.
resultsBy age, the probability of asthma occurrence was 1.02 times higher (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] 1.02 [95% CI 1.01 to 1.03]). Specifically, asthma occurrence was increased in individuals >66 years of age (aOR 2.40 [95% CI 1.22 to 4.72]). The probability of asthma occurrence in females was higher than in males (aOR 1.73 [95% CI 1.02 to 2.84]). Hypertension and systolic blood pressure (SBP) were found to increase the probability of asthma occurrence by 1.43- and 1.03-fold, respectively. Diabetes mellitus (DM) was another factor that increased with the occurrence of asthma (aOR 1.75 [95% CI 1.06 to 3.02]). The probability of asthma occurrence was not increased with the FBG level, whereas HbA1c (aOR 1.38 [95% CI 1.03 to 1.84]) and insulin levels (aOR 1.02 [95% CI 1.01 to 1.04]) were shown to increase the occurrence of asthma.
conclusionsAge, sex, hypertension, SBP, DM, HbA1c and insulin levels are all factors that may influence the occurrence of asthma in Korean adults. In particular, hypertension and diabetes emerge from the present study as potential associated factors for the development of asthma.
