Preschool impulse oscillometry predicts active asthma and impaired lung function at school age.
Article in The Journal of allergy and clinical immunology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 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
backgroundAsthmatic symptoms often start during early childhood. Impulse oscillometry (IOS) is feasible in preschool children who may be unable to reliably perform spirometry measurements.
objectiveWe sought to evaluate the use of IOS in a multicenter, multiethnic high-risk asthma cohort titled the Vitamin D Antenatal Asthma Reduction Trial.
methodsThe trial recruited pregnant women whose children were followed from birth to age 8 years. Lung function was assessed with IOS at ages 4, 5, and 6 years and spirometry at ages 5, 6, 7, and 8 years. Asthma status, respiratory symptoms, and medication use were assessed with repeated questionnaires from birth to age 8 years.
resultsIn total, 220 children were included in this secondary analysis. Recent respiratory symptoms and short-acting β
conclusionsIncreased respiratory resistance in preschool IOS is associated with frequent respiratory symptoms as well as school-age asthma and lung function impairment. Our findings suggest that IOS may serve as a potential objective measure for early identification of children who are at high risk of respiratory morbidity.
