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

introductionAsthma is a major personal and public health problem worldwide, with a significant impact on patients' quality of life and health systems. The prevalence of asthma in children is 9.1% and in adolescents is 11%. Greater literacy among children is related to better asthma control. There are many validated Patient-Reported Outcome Measures (PROMs) related to asthma, but there are only a few, and no gold standard, to measure children and adolescents' knowledge of asthma. Therefore, the purpose of this systematic review is to evaluate the most suitable asthma self-knowledge PROMs for the paediatric population with asthma. METHODS AND ANALYSIS: The inclusion criteria will be children and adolescents diagnosed with asthma (population), validated PROMs about asthma self-knowledge (intervention), between each PROM (comparison) and measurement properties (outcome) (validity, reliability, interpretability and responsiveness). The search process will be conducted in PubMed, Web of Science, EMBASE and SCOPUS. The risk of bias evaluation will be done independently by two authors with the COnsensus-based Standards for the selection of health Measurement INstruments risk of bias checklist, and the quality of evidence will be evaluated based on the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation approach. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION: Ethics approval is not applicable for this study since the data that will be collected are secondary data and are already in the public domain. The results will be disseminated through peer-reviewed publication and conference presentations. PROSPERO REGISTRATION NUMBER: CRD42024577500.
