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

objectiveTo highlight recommendations from the Canadian Thoracic Society (CTS) 2021 asthma guideline for adults and children aged 12 years and older and to address controversies related to the update. SOURCES OF INFORMATION: The CTS 2021 asthma guideline. MAIN MESSAGE: Asthma is a common condition encountered in primary care. Poor symptom control and exacerbations contribute substantially to the burden of disease. Practice guidelines have been shifting in recent years toward more aggressive treatment of very mild and mild asthma, with goals of optimizing symptom control and reducing exacerbations. Consider underlying risk of exacerbation, extent of asthma symptoms, adherence levels, and treatment cost when choosing therapy for patients with very mild and mild asthma.

conclusionThe goal of this article is to briefly review the evidence and rationale behind treatment options in the CTS guideline to help physicians make patient-centred decisions.
