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

Rhinovirus (RV) is an important virus in children with chronic respiratory conditions such as asthma; however, little is known about its role in CF. Our aim was to examine the prevalence and clinical impact of different RV species in young children with CF. We collected clinical data and nasal swabs on patients at home and in the hospital setting. Parents filled out symptom diaries and collected nasal swabs when their children were symptomatic and asymptomatic. A novel RV typing PCR assay was used to determine the RV species present. We collected 55 nasal swab samples from ten preschool CF patients over a six month period. The quality of parent collected samples at home was sufficient for PCR analysis. RV was the most common virus detected in young children with CF. There was no difference in the frequency of RV species between symptomatic and asymptomatic subjects. However, parental home-sampling is an acceptable and feasible approach to monitoring young children with CF.
