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

Objectives: The COVID-19 pandemic resulted in daily functioning changes for many families. Adjustments in daily functioning may have impacted asthma management and subsequent morbidity. The current study seeks to build upon extant literature by exploring differences in youth asthma exacerbations and control, as well as youth and caregiver asthma-related quality of life (ArQOL) throughout COVID-19 transitional points. Methods: Ninety-three youth (9-17 years old) with asthma and their caregivers completed measures of demographic/medical information, asthma control, and ArQOL. Participants were recruited between January 2020 and October 2021 via their medical appointments and a hospital registry. We conducted Kruskal-Wallis Results: Asthma exacerbations were higher prior to the onset of the pandemic compared to "during lockdown" and "post-lockdown," H(2) = 7.31, Conclusion: Youth and caregiver asthma functioning improved following the onset of the pandemic. These findings build upon existing literature to highlight higher ArQOL in caregivers following the pandemic onset, likely related to improvements in youth asthma control and morbidity. Future research should explore trajectories of asthma and psychosocial functioning throughout the pandemic for families.
