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
introductionObesity and asthma are two chronic diseases affecting millions of people around the world. A causal relationship has been suggested. The purpose of our study is to examine the profile in obese people with asthma and to determine the relationship between the different severity parameters in asthma and the degree of obesity.
methodsWe conducted a retrospective, monocentric, analytical study involving 450 asthmatics with a body mass index (BMI) ≥ 30 kg/m
resultsThe average age at diagnosis was 45±12.8 years. Mean BMI was 34.8±4.2 kg/m
conclusionObesity is one of the key factors involved in poor asthma control. Its management, which has not yet been codified, should be multidisciplinary.
