Fractional nitric oxide measurement in exhaled air (FeNO): perspectives in the management of respiratory diseases.
Review in Therapeutic advances in chronic disease, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT07606898 (Fractional Exhaled Nitric Oxide as Possible Non - Invasive Biomarker to Assess Obstructive Sleep Apnea Severity), which is not on this map. Cited by 29 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.

Abstract
Exhaled nitric oxide (NO) production, upregulated by inflammatory cytokines and mediators in central and peripheral airways, can be easily and non-invasively detected in exhaled air in asthma and other respiratory conditions as a promising tool for disease monitoring. The American Thoracic Society and European Respiratory Society released recommendations that standardize the measurement of the fractional exhaled NO (FeNO). In asthma, increased FeNO reflects eosinophilic-mediated inflammatory pathways and, as a biomarker of T2 inflammation can be used to identify asthma T2 phenotype. In this setting its measurement has shown to be an important tool especially in the diagnostic process, in the assessment and evaluation of poor adherence or predicting positive response to inhaled corticosteroids treatment, in phenotyping severe asthma patients and as a biomarker to predict the response to biologic treatments. The discovery of the role of NO in the pathogenesis of different diseases affecting the airways and the possibility to estimate the predominant site of increased NO production has provided new insight on its regulatory role in the airways, making it suitable for a potential extended use in clinical practice for different pulmonary diseases, even though its role remains less clear than in asthma. Monitoring FeNO in pulmonary obstructive lung diseases including chronic bronchitis and emphysema, interstitial lung diseases, obstructive sleep apnea and other pulmonary diseases is still under debate but has opened up a window to the role NO may play in the management of these diseases. The use of FeNO is reliable, cost effective and recommendable in both adults and children, and should be implemented in the management of patients with asthma and other respiratory conditions.
