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

Asthma is a chronic respiratory condition affecting around 300 million people worldwide. In the United States, Black individuals have a higher burden of asthma than White individuals. The goal of this study was to differentiate the burden of asthma between US-born and foreign-born Black residents of New York City (NYC). We use a multivariable Cox proportional hazard model with a robust variance estimate. The results indicate that foreign-born Black NYC residents have a significantly lower asthma prevalence than US-born (PR = 0.40, 95% CI = 0.21-0.76). Additionally, those 65 years and older have a lower prevalence of asthma compared to those 18-34 years old. This study shows that asthma prevalence is higher amongst US-born Black NYC residents than foreign-born, which may indicate that the healthcare needs of the foreign-born may be different from that of the native-born. Further studies are needed to elucidate this result fully.
