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

Asthma is the most common disease of childhood globally and acute asthma is the most significant risk factor for asthma-related death and chronic complications. This article will aim to synthesize the most up-to-date research and translate it into a more practical guide to managing acute asthma on a more daily basis. The use of clinical severity score is reviewed alongside the use of history and clinical findings in making objective assessments of patients presenting with acute asthma. Practical evidence-based pathways and a stepwise approach are provided for management of acute asthma in the home, outpatient, emergency, and intensive care settings. In doing so, popular myths are dispelled and practices in relation to management of acute asthma and use of asthma related medications are clarified. Having a standardized approach to management of acute asthma will bring us one step closer to reducing exacerbations and achieving the goal of having zero tolerance towards exacerbations.
