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

Aim: In recent years, mobile applications have been developed for health education purposes. The aim of this study was to determine whether Telegram-based virtual education versus in-person education can be effective for improving the quality of life in adolescents with moderate-to-severe asthma. Design: A single-blind randomized trial. Methods: Participants were 64 adolescents aged 12-19 years and were equally assigned randomly to group A (Telegram-based education) and group B (in-person education) during 22 June 2017-19 February 2018. The educational contents were similar for both groups. The Mini Pediatric Asthma Quality of Life Questionnaire was used prior to intervention and 5 weeks postintervention for both groups of adolescents. Results: A statistically significant increase was observed in the quality of life in both groups (
