Improving the management of acute asthma in children through an integrated care pathway: an implementation study protocol.
Article in Frontiers in pediatrics, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT06437444 (Asthma Crisis in Paediatrics), which is not on this map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.

Abstract
Introduction: This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness and feasibility of the implementation of an Asthma Integrated Care Pathway (AICP) to improve care and reduce variability according to recommended clinical practice guidelines, for children presenting with acute asthma episodes in paediatric primary care, and hospital services including emergency departments. Methods and analysis: A cluster quasi-experimental implementation trial with a matched control group will be launched in a regional healthcare service. All the paediatric healthcare professionals providing care in two health districts (HDs) will receive interventions over two 12-month periods during which components of the implementation strategy to favour adoption of the AICP will be deployed cumulatively. A selected set of professionals from the same levels of care in the other HDs ( Discussion: This study performed in real-world settings will contribute in extending knowledge in asthma care pathways beyond emergency settings into primary care and across the healthcare continuum. In addition, its findings aim to guide health systems in reducing variability in care, increasing guideline adherence, and ultimately improving paediatric asthma outcomes across the system.
