Heterogeneity of perception of symptoms in patients with asthma.
Article in Journal of thoracic disease, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
backgroundCough-dominant or cough-variant asthma is common in Japan. However, it is unclear whether cough and dyspnea, the cardinal symptoms of bronchial asthma, are similarly perceived, and whether these symptoms are linked to pulmonary function tests.
methodsThe subjects were 548 physician-diagnosed naive patients with asthma. Visual analogue scale (VAS) scores were determined and spirometry was performed before and after 1-month inhaled corticosteroid/long-acting beta2 agonist therapy.
resultsThe patients were divided into those with a significant bronchodilating response and an increase in FEV
conclusionsPerception of cough and dyspnea were similar, but not identical, for bronchodilating responders and nonresponders among patients with bronchial asthma. Linkage of pulmonary function parameters with perceptions of cough and dyspnea also differed between the responders and nonresponders.
