Investigation of a Thunderstorm Asthma Event - Chongqing Municipality, China, April 2024.
Article in China CDC weekly, 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
What is already known about this topic?: Thunderstorm asthma (TA) is triggered by specific severe convective weather conditions and elevated airborne allergen concentrations, leading to a rapid increase in asthma cases within a short period. Three TA incidents have been previously reported in China, occurring in Shaanxi, Ningxia, and Inner Mongolia. What is added by this report?: We report the first documented thunderstorm asthma event (TAE) in Chongqing, China, and conducted a case-control study revealing that allergic rhinitis is an independent risk factor among susceptible individuals. What are the implications for public health practice?: Health organizations should conduct targeted health education for at-risk populations to improve public emergency response capabilities. Further studies are needed to investigate the meteorological conditions leading to TAE.
