Assessment of Pulmonary Function in Children with Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis: A Cross-Sectional Study.
Article in Children (Basel, Switzerland), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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/
objectivesJuvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) is a chronic autoimmune disorder characterized by joint inflammation, potentially leading to pulmonary involvement. This study aimed to assess pulmonary function in children with JIA compared to controls and identify potential respiratory abnormalities associated with the disease.
methodsThis was a prospective cross-sectional study conducted at the Pediatric Rheumatology, Başakşehir Çam and Sakura City Hospital, İstanbul, Türkiye, between July and October 2024. The study included 70 children with JIA and 60 healthy controls aged 6 to 17. Pulmonary function test parameters, such as forced vital capacity (FVC), forced expiratory volume in the 1st second (FEV1), peak expiratory flow (PEF), and FEV1/FVC ratio, were measured using spirometry. Oxygen saturation (SpO
resultsThere were no significant differences in demographic and clinical characteristics between the JIA and control groups (
conclusionsAlthough PEF values were significantly lower in children with JIA, overall pulmonary function was comparable between the groups. Regular pulmonary monitoring in JIA patients is recommended for early detection and management of respiratory complications.
