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

The "treatable traits" approach to asthma management has helped revolutionize severe asthma treatment with biologic therapy and includes using biomarkers to identify patients most likely to benefit from a specific treatment. The ability to understand which characteristics predict response to inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) or bronchodilator therapy in mild and moderate-to-severe asthma is also vital for physicians to provide treatment tailored to an individual's phenotype/endotype. Here, we identified studies of inhaled treatments in asthma exploring treatment outcomes based upon subgroups of baseline characteristics, including type 2 biomarkers, asthma attack history, baseline lung function, bronchodilator reversibility, patient age and age at asthma onset, body mass index, smoking status, sex, and ethnicity. We assessed the available evidence regarding the influence of each characteristic on lung function, asthma attacks or asthma control in patients with asthma following treatment with either ICS, ICS/long-acting β
