Asthma phenotype: Clinical, physiological, and biochemical profiles of North Indian patients.

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
Background and Objectives: Asthma is a common, chronic and heterogeneous disease with various phenotypes. The clinical phenotypes has aided in revealing the genetic heterogeneity, provide education, life style advice and novel biological treatments. The few common factors associated with phenotypes are smoking, rhinitis and obesity. The present study was thus planned to analyse and correlate the clinical, physiological, biochemical and serological parameters of asthma and to study the phenotypic characteristics in different asthmatic. Methods: This was a prospective observational study of 120 patients with 30 each in BA-rhinitis, BA, BA-obesity and BA smoker phenotypes. All the enrolled patients were assessed by SGRQ, Mini-AQLQ, GINA with ACE, chest X ray, Spirometry, SPT against common aero-allergens, FENO, hsCRP, vitamin-D, IgE, and Interleukins (IL) including IL-5, IL-6, IL-8, IL-13, IL-17 and IL-33. The mentioned profiles of each phenotype correlated and characterized among different phenotypes. Results: The majority of patients 78(65%) were female with mean BMI of 24.07±4.73kg/m Conclusion: The majority of parameters were significantly different among various phenotypes. We advise to phenotypic classification of asthma whenever possible for better management and quality of life.
