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

Uncontrolled asthma in the elderly is a public health issue recognized in developed countries such as the United States and among the European Union, both from patient safety and economic perspectives. Variations in the cutoff, which defines elderly age, contribute to epidemiological study difficulties. Nonetheless, the relevance of elderly asthma from a socioeconomic perspective is inarguable. The projected growth of the enlarging geriatric population in the United States portends an impending national health burden that may or may not be preventable with pharmacologic and non-pharmacologic treatments. Asthma in the elderly might be a consequence of uncontrolled disease that is carried throughout a lifetime. Or elderly asthmatics could suffer from uncontrolled asthma, which overlaps with other ailments common with advancing ages that merit consideration, eg, COPD, heart disease, OSA, diabetes mellitus, and other comorbidities. Because of the heterogeneity of asthma phenotypes and other conditions that could mimic the symptoms of elderly asthma, further cohort studies are needed to elucidate the elderly asthmatic pathophysiology and management. More studies to characterize elderly asthma can help address these patients' unmet need for evidence-based guidelines. We introduce the 5 "Ps" (phenotypes, partnership, pharmacology, practice in acute exacerbations, and problems or barriers for the elderly asthmatics) that establish a framework approach for clinical practice.
