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
Introduction: Evaluate asthma control and determine its influencing factors to ensure adequate management and improve the quality of life for asthmatic children. Method: A prospective cross-sectional study was conducted over a two-month period, from 02/11/2022 to 01/01/2023, at the pneumo-pediatric consultation at the MCH. The target population was asthmatic children aged 4 to 11 and their parents. The Arabic version of the C-ACT and PMAQ-3W were used to assess asthma control and medication compliance, respectively.Statistical analysis was performed with SPSS, using descriptive and correlational analysis (bivariate and multivariate). Results: 203 asthmatic children were included in the study, out of which 60.6% were male, with a mean age of 6 years. Asthma was uncontrolled in 53% of children. Factors associated with uncontrolled asthma were rural residence, low parental education, low monthly family income, lack of awareness of triggers, presence of conjunctivitis or allergic rhinitis, occurrence of respiratory infections, parental history of asthma, exposure to smoking, and non-compliance with treatment. Conclusion: 53% of children had uncontrolled asthma. A range of predictive factors were significantly associated with suboptimal asthma control. Recommended actions to improve childhood asthma control include education on trigger prevention and medication compliance, treatment of comorbidities, and accessibility of care for all socio-economic classes.
