Beliefs about complementary and alternative medicine and asthma medication among Hispanic/Latinx and Black adolescents in New York City.
Article in Journal of pediatric nursing. 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
backgroundComplementary and alternative medicine (CAM) beliefs and negative beliefs regarding inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) are each associated with poor asthma control. CAM use and ICS beliefs are well studied among minority adults; little is known about minority adolescents' CAM and ICS beliefs. We describe CAM and ICS beliefs among urban Hispanic/Latinx and Black adolescents with uncontrolled asthma and explore differences by race and ethnicity.
methodsThis cross-sectional study is a secondary analysis of baseline data from a trial testing an asthma intervention in adolescents with uncontrolled asthma in New York City (n = 212). Adolescents completed the Conventional and Alternative Management for Asthma (CAM-A) questionnaire. Regression analyses explored relationships between CAM and ICS beliefs and race and ethnicity.
resultsMost adolescents endorsed at least one CAM belief (mean = 4.41 of 9 items, SD = 1.83). Among adolescents who reported taking an ICS, most (67.3 %) endorsed two or fewer negative ICS beliefs (mean = 1.93 of 6 items, SD = 1.47). Compared to adolescents who identified as both Hispanic/Latinx and Black, those who identified solely as Hispanic/Latinx had higher odds of believing Vicks VapoRub™ is beneficial (OR = 3.44, 95 % CI = 1.55, 7.64), while those who identified solely as Black had higher odds of expressing negative beliefs about ICS (OR = 1.90, 95 % CI = 1.08, 3.34).
conclusionHispanic/Latinx and Black adolescents believe that CAM can help their asthma. They also hold similar negative beliefs regarding ICS. IMPLICATIONS FOR PRACTICE: Findings underscore the importance of nurses addressing CAM and ICS beliefs with adolescents during asthma-related healthcare visits and supporting culturally responsive, evidence-based asthma education and management strategies.
