Association between dietary preferences and asthma among first-grade primary school children.

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
Importance: Asthma is a chronic condition characterized by airway inflammation. Dietary habits have been associated with allergic respiratory disorders, but the specific dietary preferences linked to childhood asthma remain unclear. Objective: To investigate the relationship between dietary preferences and childhood asthma in Minhang District, Shanghai, China. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted in 13 sub-districts/towns of Minhang District, Shanghai, in 2014. First-grade primary school students were surveyed during their annual physical examinations. Data on dietary preferences and health status were collected through questionnaires completed by the children's primary caregivers. Logistic regression analysis was used to assess the relationship between dietary preferences and asthma. Stratified analyses were conducted by sex and body mass index groups. Results: A total of 8412 children, with an average age of 6.64 ± 0.29 years, participated in the survey. After adjusting for potential confounders, children who reported a preference for pickled and smoked foods exhibited a significantly elevated risk of asthma (odds ratio [OR] = 1.81; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.16-2.82). Subgroup analysis further revealed that girls with a preference for fried foods were at a higher risk of developing asthma (OR = 14.72; 95% CI: 1.89-114.65). Interpretation: Our findings suggest that certain dietary preferences, particularly for pickled and smoked foods, may be significant risk factors for childhood asthma.
