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

Pollutants from various indoor sources account for indoor air pollution mostly in developing countries and pose health risks to children. This study assessed the levels of indoor gaseous pollutants and environmental risk factors associated with asthma in children. A cross-sectional household survey was conducted among 304 children between the ages of 1 and 17 years. Indoor pollution at home was investigated using a modified international survey on asthma and allergies in childhood (ISAAC) questionnaire. Concentrations of indoor gaseous pollutants (CO, SO2 and NO2) were measured in two hundred and twenty-five randomly selected households using a MultiRae lite gas meter. The data obtained were analysed using SPSS for windows version 21.0. The risk factors for childhood asthma were obtained as odds ratios (ORs) using multivariate logistic regression. Mean concentrations of indoor gaseous pollutants ranged between 2.34-3.14 and 2.21-2.61 mg/m
