A guide for a patient-centric approach to asthma management: results of a European Delphi consensus programme.
Review in NPJ primary care respiratory medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundThe Global Initiative for Asthma 2024 report recommends a shared decision-making approach to guide treatment choice, encompassing patients' goals, beliefs and concerns about asthma and medications (GINA. Global Strategy for Asthma Management and Prevention, 2024). There is limited guidance on ways to achieve this goal. This consensus programme aimed to create recommendations on optimal selection of inhaler treatment while considering patient perspectives and needs.
methodsA literature review was conducted on literature published between 01/01/2014 and 23/04/2024 using agreed keywords and search parameters in PubMed and Cochrane databases. Evidence on impact of patient factors on adherence and asthma control, plus inhaler preference data, was analysed. A consensus voting panel was selected via screening questionnaire, with 50 patients with asthma duration ≥5 years and 39 healthcare professionals with expertise in asthma from five European countries (Germany, France, Czechia, Italy, Greece). A two-round Delphi method was used.
results40/135 papers were considered relevant. From these, 20 consensus statements were developed in four areas: patient-centred treatment selection, medication/asthma beliefs, patient preference + shared decision-making, and tools for patient-centred care. 18/20 consensus statements were accepted with an agreement threshold >85% on the first round of voting. Two revised statements underwent a second Delphi round, again failing to reach consensus.
conclusionsThis important initiative generated much-needed guidance on integrating patient views and needs into treatment decision-making following a well-established methodology through 18 consensus statements, with nearly equal input from patients and healthcare professionals.
