Prevalence of asthma in preterm and associated risk factors based on prescription data from the Korean National Health Insurance database.
Article in Scientific reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
We retrospectively analyzed National Health Insurance claims data (January 2002-December 2018) to determine the asthma prevalence and risk factors among preterm infants born in Korea. Patients with asthma were defined as those with a history of asthma medication prescriptions at least twice per year with International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Edition codes J45 and J46. We enrolled 99,139 preterm infants. The prevalence of asthma among preterm and term infants was 32.7% and 26.9%, 21.2% and 19.1%, 6.7% and 5.9%, 2.0%, and 1.6%, and 2.4% and 1.6% at 2, 5, 10, 15, and 16 years of age, respectively. The relative risk (RR) of asthma in preterm infants was 1.1-fold that in female preterm infants. The RR of asthma medication prescriptions for infants with extreme prematurity was 1.92-fold that of infants with moderate/late pre-term status. Among preterm with bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) and respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) without comorbidities, the RRs for the number of asthma medication prescriptions were 1.34 and 1.06, respectively. This study revealed a higher prevalence of asthma among preterm infants than that in term infants. Male sex, extreme prematurity, BPD, and RDS were identified as risk factors for asthma medication prescriptions in preterm infants.
