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

Real-time breath analysis has shown potential as a non-invasive method for detecting oxidative stress and airway inflammation. However, there is a lack of data on the association of full-breath profiles with established urinary biomarkers of oxidative stress and respiratory inflammation, which could help advance the implementation of this method in clinical practice. We analyzed breath profiles of 25 tobacco smoke-exposed and 103 non-exposed children via real-time secondary electrospray ionization high-resolution mass spectrometry (SESI-HRMS) and determined in parallel the urinary concentrations of biomarkers of oxidative stress and respiratory inflammation. We evaluated the correlation between breath features and urinary biomarkers and tested the prediction of these biomarkers by exhaled breath. We found 71 breath features that correlated significantly with the urinary oxidative stress marker 8-iso-prostaglandin F2α (8-iso-PGF2α). The agreement (mean ± standard deviation) (Lin's concordance correlation) between breath-predicted and actual urinary 8-iso-PGF2α levels was 0.37 (0.05). In conclusion, our results suggest that the real-time breath analysis via SESI-HRMS has promising potential to gauge oxidative stress.
