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

backgroundDetermining why some upper respiratory illnesses provoke asthma exacerbations remains an unmet need.

objectiveWe sought to identify transcriptome-wide gene expression changes associated with colds that progress to exacerbation.

methodsTwo hundred eight urban children (6-17 years) with exacerbation-prone asthma were prospectively monitored for up to 2 cold illnesses. Exacerbation illnesses (Ex

resultsOne hundred six participants were evaluated during 154 colds. There was greater upregulation of differentially expressed interferon genes during Ex

conclusionDysregulated interferon responses are important contributors to asthma exacerbation risk in children. Low baseline interferon expression followed by greater upregulation of interferon pathways in airway and blood during respiratory illnesses increased exacerbation risk. Targeting this pathway in at-risk individuals holds promise for the personalized prevention of asthma exacerbations.
