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

Background: Status asthmaticus is a common reason for hospitalization and pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) admission among children. While previous studies have demonstrated a correlation between elevated IgE levels and asthma severity in outpatient settings, studies analyzing IgE levels in an inpatient cohort are limited. Objective: We examined the relationship between baseline IgE levels and symptom severity, maximum respiratory support, and PICU and hospital length of stay in an inpatient pediatric cohort. Methods: This was a single-center retrospective chart review of children admitted to the Children's Hospital at Montefiore with status asthmaticus as their primary diagnosis. The primary goal was to determine the relationship between baseline IgE levels and severity of illness at time of admission. Secondary outcomes included maximum respiratory support, and PICU and hospital length of stay. Results: We identified a statistically significant difference ( Conclusion: Elevated baseline IgE level is correlated with higher asthma symptom severity when hospitalized and with longer PICU length of stay. Our study adds to the growing body of evidence that those with high baseline IgE levels are at risk of having severe asthma symptomology.
