Peripheral Airway Dysfunction in Obesity and Obese Asthma.
Article in Chest, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 19 papers.
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
backgroundThe purpose of this study was to investigate physiological phenotypes of asthma in obesity. RESEARCH QUESTION: Do physiological responses during bronchoconstriction distinguish different groups of asthma in people with obesity, and also differentiate from responses simply related to obesity? STUDY DESIGN AND
methodsCross-sectional study of people with obesity (31 with asthma and 22 without lung disease). Participants underwent methacholine challenge testing with measurement of spirometry and respiratory system impedance by oscillometry.
resultsParticipants had class III obesity (BMI, 46.7 ± 6.6 kg/m
interpretationPeripheral airway reactivity detected by oscillometry is common in obese control subjects and obese people with asthma. There is a subgroup of obese asthma characterized by significant peripheral airway dysfunction by oscillometry out of proportion to spirometric airway dysfunction. This peripheral dysfunction represents clinically significant respiratory disease not readily assessed by spirometry.
