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

Budesonide is a first-line inhaled glucocorticoid (ICS) for asthma treatment in adults and children. The purpose of this study was to compare the pharmacokinetics and assess the bioequivalence between two budesonide pressurized metered-dose inhalers (pMDIs, 200 μg/actuation × 1 actuation) in healthy Chinese subjects. The study was conducted in 32 healthy Chinese subjects using a single-center, randomized, open-label, four-period and crossover design with a 3-day washout between periods. Blood samples were collected up to 16 h post-dose. Plasma concentrations of budesonide were quantified using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). Reference-scaled average bioequivalence (RSABE) or average bioequivalence (ABE) method was applied to evaluate the bioequivalence, on the basis of the within-subject standard deviation (S
