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
Background and Objective: Previous studies found that the fractional nitric oxide concentration in exhaled breath (FeNO) levels in healthy Chinese adults was higher than in White adults. More understanding of serial changes of FeNO levels with asthma control in a real-life clinical setting would be important to explore the utility of this biomarker in routine asthma management. This study assessed the FeNO levels of Chinese asthma subjects with different levels of asthma control and the serial changes with respect to the changes in asthma control over 1 year. Methods: A 12-month prospective study (subjects recruited between November 2019 and January 2021) with serial measurement of FeNO levels at baseline, 4, 8 and 12 months. Asthma control was assessed by the Global Initiative for Asthma classification, Asthma Control Test (ACT) and Asthma Control Questionnaire (ACQ). Results: Altogether, 136 subjects (mean age 51.51±15.09 years, 46[33.8%] male) had successful baseline FeNO measurements. At baseline, the FeNO levels did not show a statistically significant difference for controlled, partly controlled and uncontrolled asthma according to GINA classification, ACT and ACQ. FeNO levels decreased with improving asthma control and stayed at similar levels with unchanged or worsening asthma control for all subjects. For subjects with baseline blood eosinophil levels ≥300 cells/µL(n=59), FeNO levels decreased with improving asthma control, stayed similar without change for asthma control and increased with worsening asthma control. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis with the highest area under curve (AUC) for changes in FeNO levels for improving asthma control was between ≤ -10 to -25 ppb at various time points in the 12-month study. Conclusion: Changes in FeNO levels over time were associated with changes in clinical asthma control, particularly in those with higher blood eosinophil count and are likely more useful than a single time point measurement in managing asthma.
