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

objectiveThis study aims to investigate the effects of video scenario-based breathing training on interleukin-4 (IL-4), interleukin-6 (IL-6), interleukin-10 (IL-10), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), and interferon-γ (IFN-γ) in children with Mycoplasma pneumonia.

methodsA total of 106 children with Mycoplasma pneumonia treated in our hospital from February 2022 to April 2024 were selected. According to different nursing methods, children receiving routine intervention were assigned to the control group, while those undergoing video scenario-based breathing training were assigned to the training group. The serum inflammatory indexes, improvement time of clinical symptoms and lung function recovery were compared between the two groups before training, and at 1 and 2 weeks after training.

resultsBefore training, there was no statistically significant difference in serum inflammatory and lung function indexes between the two groups (p > 0.05). After 1 and 2 weeks of training, the forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1), peak expiratory flow rate (PEF), and the ratio of FEV1 to forced vital capacity (FEV1/FVC) in both groups increased, with higher values in the training group than in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (p < 0.05). The time for cough disappearance, wheezing disappearance, lung rales disappearance and high fever abatement in the training group was lower than that in the control group, with statistically significant differences (p < 0.05). The levels of IL-4, IL-6, IL-10, TNF-α, and IFN-γ decreased in both groups, with lower levels in the training group than in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (p < 0.05).

conclusionVideo scenario-based breathing training can improve lung function, alleviate clinical symptoms and signs, and reduce serum inflammatory levels of IL-4, IL-6, IL-10, TNF-α and IFN-γ in children with Mycoplasma pneumonia.
