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

objectiveTo investigate the effect of modified Xiaoqinglong Decoction on cough variant asthma (CVA) and immunological functioning in children.

methodsIn this is retrospective analysis, 122 children with CAV admitted to our hospital from Mar. 2021 to Mar. 2022 were divided into an observation group (n=61) and a control group (n=61) according to treatment methods. The control group received fluticasone propionate inhalation aerosol, and the observation group additionally received Xiaoqinglong Decoction. The therapeutic efficacy in the two groups was compared after 8 weeks of treatment. The comparison indictors included scores of daytime and nighttime cough, pulmonary function, fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO), eosinophil count, inflammatory response (interleukin-4 (IL-4), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and macrophage inflammatory protein ((MIP)-1α), immunoglobulin (Ig)) level and adverse reactions.

resultsThe overall response rate of children with CVA in the observation group was higher than that in the control group (

conclusionThe modified Xiaoqinglong Decoction has a conspicuous effect on children with CVA. It helps to reduce cough symptoms, improve pulmonary function, reduce inflammatory response and improve immunological functioning of children.
