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

rationaleThe utility of fractional exhaled nitric oxide (

objectivesWe examined the utility of FeNOSuppT in prediction of progression to biologic agents or discharge from specialist care.

methodsFeNOSuppT was measured at home using remote monitoring technology of inhaler use alongside daily MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN

resultsOf the 162 subjects, 135 successfully completed the test with 81 (60%) positive

conclusionsA negative FeNOSuppT correlates with progression to biologic therapy. A positive FeNOSuppT, with subsequent maintenance of "optimised"
