The relationship between teen-reported nocturnal asthma symptoms and daily functioning.

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
objectiveThis study aims to identify associations between nocturnal asthma awakenings and functional health outcomes in a cohort of teenagers with asthma.
methodsWe analyzed baseline data from teenagers enrolled in SB-ACT, an NIH-funded RCT. During an at-home baseline survey, teenagers with asthma answered questions about demographics, recent asthma symptoms, and functional health outcomes. We conducted regression analyses to explore the relationship between persistent nocturnal asthma symptoms (≥2 nights of nocturnal asthma awakenings in the past 14 days) and functional health measures.
resultsOf the 430 teens enrolled (Participation rate = 79%, Mean Age = 13.4), 30% reported persistent nocturnal asthma symptoms. Compared to teens with intermittent nocturnal asthma symptoms, teens with persistent nocturnal asthma symptoms were more likely to report physical limitation during strenuous activities (OR = 1.9, 1.3-3.0), moderate activities (OR = 1.9, 1.2-3.1), and school gym (OR = 2.4, 1.5-3.8). They were also more likely to report depressive symptoms (OR = 2.3, 1.5-3.6), more asthma-related school absenteeism in the past 14 days (0.81 vs 0.12, p < 0.01) and poorer quality of life (4.6 vs 5.9, p < 0.01). These findings remained significant when controlling for daytime asthma symptoms, weight status, race, ethnicity, gender, age, and smoke exposure.
conclusionsIn this cross-sectional study, persistent nighttime asthma symptoms were associated with poor functional health outcomes among teens, independent of day-time symptoms. Identifying nighttime symptoms and improving asthma control at night may positively impact daily functioning for these teens.
