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

backgroundInhaled corticosteroids (ICSs) are a fundamental pillar of most regimens for long-term control of persistent asthma. Poor adherence to ICS medication is a common problem in the asthma population that can lead to poor asthma control. We hypothesized that conducting a follow-up telephone call after general pediatric clinic visits for asthma would improve refill persistence.

methodsWe conducted a prospective cohort analysis of pediatric and young adult subjects followed in our pediatric primary care clinic for asthma on ICS medication found to have poor ICS refill persistence. This cohort received a follow-up telephone outreach call 5-8 weeks after the clinic visit. The primary outcome measure was refill persistence with regard to ICS therapy.

resultsThere were 289 subjects who met the inclusion criteria and did not meet any exclusion criteria for the study (

conclusionsThese results suggest that telephone outreach after out-patient clinic visits for asthma may have short-term benefit in ICS refill persistence; however, the effect size was small.
