Impact of Coronavirus Disease 2019 on the Pediatric Population with Aerodigestive Disease.
Article in The Journal of pediatrics, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
objectiveTo determine the impact of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) quarantine on baseline health, medication use, health anxiety, and healthcare use in pediatric patients with aerodigestive disease and to evaluate for associations of commonly prescribed medications with the risk of COVID-19 illness. STUDY
designProspective study of patients presenting in person to pediatric neurogastroenterology clinics between July 2020 and March 2021.
resultsOf 202 recruited patients, 71.3% were seen in the aerodigestive diseases center and 28.7% in the functional abdominal pain (FAP)/motility clinic. Of all patients, 25.1% reported improved overall health during quarantine; patients with aerodigestive disease (35.3%) reported higher rates of improved overall health compared with patients with FAP/motility disorders (3.6%, P = .0001). Patients with aerodigestive disease had fewer airway symptoms (P < .05) and less medication use during quarantine (inhaled steroids, P < .05 and albuterol, P < .05). Despite objective improvement, there was significant health-related anxiety, with greater anxiety scores reported during and at the end of quarantine (P < .05), with no difference between patient groups (P > .11). Patients continued to access healthcare during quarantine. In total, 28.7% of patients were seen in the emergency department (patients with FAP more than patients with aerodigestive disease, P = .02), and 19.8% were hospitalized. COVID-19 testing was performed in 58.4% of patients and 2.0% (n = 4) of the entire cohort tested positive.
conclusionsPatients with aerodigestive disease show improvement of airway symptoms and decreased use of medications during the pandemic, despite increased health-related anxiety. Despite complexities of accessing care due to the widespread lockdown, all patient groups continued to access healthcare.
