New Asthma Diagnosis Codes or Short-Acting β
Article in Mycoses, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundAlthough several fungal infections have been linked to asthma development, the relationship between histoplasmosis and asthma development has not been fully described.
objectivesTo assess the incidence of new asthma diagnosis codes or short-acting β
methodsWe used a large health insurance claims database to identify patients with histoplasmosis with and without an asthma diagnosis code or a short-acting β
resultsAmong 1819 patients diagnosed with histoplasmosis, 252 (13.9%) received a new asthma diagnosis or SABA prescription in the subsequent year, more than double the proportion in the general population (5.8%). Pulmonary histoplasmosis and symptoms such as dyspnea and wheezing were associated with asthma diagnosis or SABA receipt.
conclusionThese findings suggest that histoplasmosis may predispose certain patients to airway hyperreactivity, particularly those with acute pulmonary symptoms. Further research is needed to elucidate potential mechanisms underlying these findings, which could inform strategies to mitigate post-infectious airway disease in affected patients.
