BDP/FF NEXThaler to Improve Asthma Control Status in the Real World: The NEWTON Study.
Article in Journal of asthma and allergy, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
In this article, we discuss the importance of real-world data in the treatment of patients with asthma and specifically the role of maintenance and reliever therapy (MART) with beclometasone dipropionate (BDP)/formoterol fumarate dihydrate (FF) delivered through a dry-powder inhaler (DPI) that contains an extrafine formulation. We also present the design of the NEWTON study. This multinational, multicenter, prospective, observational study will evaluate the real-world use of extrafine BDP/FF via a DPI as maintenance therapy and MART in patients with moderate to severe asthma. The study's primary outcome will be the proportion of patients improving their asthma control. Digitally collected patient-reported outcomes, such as the 5-item Asthma Control Questionnaire, the EuroQol 5-dimension 5-level, and the Test of the Adherence to Inhalers, will be used to assess the patient's asthma control, quality of life, and treatment adherence. Moreover, a new patient-reported outcome, the "Speed of change in health feeling" questionnaire, will be validated in a subgroup of patients. Overall, the results of this study will provide a real-life assessment of patients who perceived clinical benefits in a large cohort of asthmatics in Europe treated as per current clinical practice.
