Asthma and prognosis of coronavirus disease 2019.
Article in The World Allergy Organization journal, 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
It is well-known that asthma patients show compromised production of antiviral interferons and lower expression of ACE-2, most likely owing to ACE-2 expression is inversely correlated with type 2 (Th2: T helper 2) cytokine levels of asthmatics. However, COVID-19 patients with poor outcomes show early vigorous type I interferon expression. This does not match with the pathophysiology of worse COVID-19 disease development in asthma patients. Actually, why asthma might protect against poor outcomes in COVID-19 is explained in detail in recent reviews. Some new data even show decreased mortality in asthma patients. There were no flawless data that asthma patients are at a greater risk of becoming severely ill with SARS-CoV-2 infection, although current reports from the United States and the United Kingdom indicate that asthma is much more common in children and adults with COVID-19 than was formerly described from Asia as well as from central Europe.
