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

introductionPatients with uncontrolled, moderate-to-severe asthma have a higher risk for exacerbations, negatively impacting lung function and quality of life. Dupilumab, a fully human monoclonal antibody, blocks interleukins 4 and 13, key and central drivers of type 2 inflammation. Dupilumab has been effective in the treatment of certain types of moderate-to-severe asthma across several clinical trials. We describe the characteristics of patients enrolled in RAPID, a global prospective registry, who initiated dupilumab (primary indication: asthma) in a real-world clinical setting.

methodsA total of 205 patients (aged ≥ 12 years) were enrolled between March 2020 and October 2021 and are included in this analysis. Data are shown as mean (SD) unless stated otherwise.

resultsPatients were aged 50.1 (17.4) years and were mostly female (65.4%) and white (74.1%). At enrollment, 24.4% reported being current/former smokers and 86.8% had moderate-to-severe asthma (Global Initiative for Asthma steps 3-5). A mean (SD) of 4.4 (6.4) severe asthma exacerbations were reported in the year before enrolling in the registry in 78 of 152 patients with available data. Patients had reduced lung function [pre-bronchodilator forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV

conclusionOur findings suggest that most patients who enrolled in RAPID and initiated dupilumab in real-world clinical settings had a high disease burden, despite receiving current standard-of-care treatment at enrollment.
