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
BACKGROUND/
objectivesThis study assesses parent reports of adolescent- and parent-level factors related to friendships among adolescents with asthma. This study serves to inform physicians and other health care professionals of factors related to difficulties making friends for adolescents with asthma, providing information from parent reports to identify risk and resilience factors related to friendships.
methodsAdolescents aged 12-17 years with current asthma from the 2022 National Survey of Children's Health (NSCH) were selected for the study (
resultsAdolescents who were female, non-Hispanic White, had moderate/severe asthma symptoms, had current allergies, were overweight, and had behavioral problems were more likely to have difficulty making and keeping friends than adolescents who were male, non-White, had mild asthma, did not have allergies, were a normal weight or underweight, and did not have behavioral problems. Parents who reported difficulty coping with parenthood and its associated stressors were more likely to report that their adolescents had difficulty making friends.
conclusionsPediatric moderate-to-severe asthma patients whose parents had difficulty coping with stress were more likely to exhibit greater difficulty making and keeping friends. Health care professionals managing these patients should incorporate questions into their history that address behavioral problems and parental household stress growing up to determine optimal strategies for improving friendship relationships. Whether this strategy leads to better asthma control and outcomes requires further investigation. In future studies, case studies with information about changes in friendships over time for adolescents with asthma should be carried out. The case studies could potentially highlight social strategies to use to improve friendship skills, and ultimately friendship-making for this vulnerable group.
