Single Breath Counting for Diagnosis and Prediction of Severity of Acute Asthma Exacerbation in Children.
Observational study in Indian journal of pediatrics, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
objectivesTo find correlation between single breath counting (SBC) and spirometry in acute exacerbation of asthma in children.
methodsA cross-sectional observational study including all children aged 6-12 y age, who presented in outpatient department or emergency room with acute exacerbation of asthma, not fitting in exclusion criteria were enrolled. SBC and spirometry parameters were obtained before treatment and 1 h after initiating treatment (GINA 2017 Guidelines).
resultsSignificant correlation was observed in SBC and FVC (r = 0.349), FEV
conclusionsSBC can be used to predict PEF, FEV
