Perspectives and Needs of Caregivers in Protecting Their Child With Asthma From Wildfire Smoke.
Article in Pediatric pulmonology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
objectivesTo determine the caregiver-reported barriers, communication needs, and potential interventions to reduce wildfire smoke (WFS) risk for children with asthma. STUDY
designEnglish- and Spanish-speaking caregivers of children 4-13 years old with asthma were recruited from pediatric pulmonology clinics in Western Washington. Demographics and WFS-related practices were assessed via one survey and one interview, using interpreters when needed. Inductive and deductive thematic analysis was conducted using the Capability, Opportunity, and Motivation for Behavior and Source-Message-Channel-Receiver frameworks.
resultsTwenty-three caregivers participated. Interviews were conducted in English (n = 19, 83%) or Spanish (n = 4, 17%). Participant statewide social vulnerability index by 2022 census tract ranged from 0.026 to 0.997. Qualitative analysis revealed several themes including (1) significant anxiety about WFS, (2) uncertainty about reliability of the air quality index and when to take specific protective actions, (3) complex decision-making regarding staying indoors, and (4) financial barriers to implementing recommendations. Caregivers preferred receiving personalized messages about WFS from trusted health sources. We mapped the identified barriers to potential strategies to facilitate caregivers' ability to enact WFS recommendations.
conclusionsCaregivers experience a variety of barriers to WFS safety. The intervention strategies we identified represent opportunities for action and areas for future research aimed at improving health outcomes for children with asthma at risk for WFS exposure.
