[Acute viral bronchiolitis and wheezy bronchitis in children].
Article in Monatsschrift Kinderheilkunde : Organ der Deutschen Gesellschaft fur Kinderheilkunde, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Acute viral bronchiolitis and wheezy bronchitis are very common disorders in infants and preschool children. They are caused by viruses, particularly by respiratory syncytial virus and rhinoviruses. Risk factors for severe disease include premature birth, tobacco smoke exposure and immune dysfunctions. Patient history and a physical examination are sufficient to establish a diagnosis; chest X-ray and laboratory investigations are not routinely necessary. For acute bronchiolitis, many treatment options have been suggested but only supportive measures, such as minimal handling, securing adequate oxygenation and hydration are generally recommended. Antibiotics, bronchodilators, corticosteroids und leukotriene receptor antagonists are not routinely recommended. Short-acting beta-2 agonists are the first choice for the treatment of wheezy bronchitis. Inhaled corticosteroids may be tried to control symptoms in children with frequently recurring and/or severe episodes of wheezy bronchitis. The development of bronchial asthma, however, cannot be prevented by any pharmacologic tretament.
