Trends in the Prevalence of Asthma in Korean Children: A Population-Based Study From 1995 to 2022.
Article in Allergy, asthma & immunology research, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
purposeWe investigated the prevalence of asthma and its risk factors in Korean children in 2022, comparing the prevalence with previous data to identify trends in the prevalence of childhood asthma over time.
methodsThis nationwide cross-sectional study enrolled 4,038 children aged 6-7 years and 4,269 children aged 12-13 years from 213 randomly selected elementary schools in 2022. The prevalence of asthma in 2022 was compared with those in 1995, 2000, and 2010, with subgroup comparisons classified by gender. A modified International Study of Asthma and Allergies in Childhood questionnaire assessed asthma prevalence with environmental factors.
resultsThe prevalence of ''asthma diagnosis ever' in children aged 6-7 years was 9.1%, 9.4%, and 10.4% in 1995, 2000, and 2010, respectively, which was decreased in 2022 (2.1%,
conclusionsChildhood asthma prevalence has decreased, varying by asthma definition. The study's findings provide important information for establishing prevention and management strategies of childhood asthma.
