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

Purpose: To collect prospective data from asthma patients treated with medium- (87/5/9µg) or high-strength (172/5/9µg) extrafine single-inhaler beclometasone dipropionate/formoterol fumarate/glycopyrronium (BDP/FF/G, Trimbow Patients and Methods: TriMaximize is a non-interventional, prospective, multicenter study conducted in eight European countries (enrollment: 2021-2024). The primary objective was to describe patient characteristics and therapy pathways for adult patients with moderate to severe asthma treated with BDP/FF/G for up to 36 months. Assessments included demographic/clinical characteristics, pulmonary parameters, treatment pathways, asthma control measured by asthma control test (ACT), and health-related quality of life (HrQoL) measured by Mini Asthma Quality of Life Questionnaire (Mini-AQLQ). Results: In total, 1,445 patients (62.8% female; mean age: 57.6 years) were included. Before medium-strength BDP/FF/G initiation, 75.7% of the patients received a fixed ICS/LABA combination. Most patients starting with high-strength BDP/FF/G received fixed ICS/LABA (52.9%) or free ICS/LABA/LAMA (43.2%) combinations as prior therapy. Throughout the study, 87.1% of the patients remained on BDP/FF/G. At month 12, fewer patients (12.4%) used systemic corticosteroids (SCS) compared to baseline (33.2%). Use of rescue medication declined from 6.1 (baseline) to 3.6 puffs/week (month 12). During the first year, 79.5% of the patients experienced neither exacerbations nor used SCS. Three-component clinical remission was achieved in 45.6% (first year) and 59.3% (second/third year) of the patients. Four-component clinical remission was accomplished in 39.5% (first year) and 47.9% (second/third year). Improvements in asthma control (mean ACT change at month 12: 3.9; month 36: 4.8, p<0.0001) and HrQoL (mean Mini-AQLQ change at month 12: 0.8; month 36: 0.9, p<0.0001) exceeded the respective minimal clinically important differences. Forced expiratory volume in 1 second increased by 142 mL after 12 months (p<0.0001). Conclusion: Extrafine, single-inhaler BDP/FF/G therapy was effective and safe in a routine clinical practice setting in a multi-national cohort of patients with moderate to severe asthma.
