A Case Series of Patients Undergoing Bronchial Thermoplasty a Second Time for Severe Asthma.

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
Bronchial thermoplasty is a treatment option for patients with severe asthma. We report a case series of 6 patients who underwent bronchial thermoplasty on two separate occasions for poorly controlled asthma. The repeat procedures were well tolerated with no unexpected complications. One patient developed a focal area of mild bronchiectasis on imaging 6-months after repeat treatment, but this was not felt to be clinically relevant. Individual responses to repeat bronchial thermoplasty were varied, with some patients showing great improvement after treatment, whereas others did not. This series highlights the safety and feasibility of performing repeat ablation on previously ablated airways, as well as the potential clinical benefit in a select group of patients.
