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

Background: Uncontrolled asthma (UCA) is different from severe asthma and can be identified in children across all ranges of prescribed treatment. Objective: Our aim was to characterize uncontrolled childhood asthma in pediatric specialist care. Methods: We performed a nationwide cross-sectional study of 5497 children (aged 6-17 years) with asthma who were treated by pediatricians at outpatient clinics during 2019 and registered in the Swedish National Airway Register. UCA was defined as an Asthma Control Test score of 19 or lower and/or 2 or more exacerbations in the past year and/or an FEV Results: UCA was identified in 1690 children (31%), of whom 64% had an Asthma Control Test score of 19 or lower, 20% had recurrent exacerbations, and 31% had an FEV Conclusion: UCA was common and associated with female sex, increasing age, obesity, and higher Global Initiative for Asthma treatment step. Surprisingly, UCA was also common in children prescribed less than the maximum treatment, and those children could be considered undertreated patients.
