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: Speed of clinical response to a new therapeutic intervention is a critical determinant of the overall treatment outcomes, but tools focused on asthma response speed are currently unavailable. This study aimed to validate the psychometric properties of a new questionnaire initially written in Italian, the Speed of Change in Feeling of Health (SCFH), in patients with asthma. Patients and Methods: Two hundred and seventy subjects with not-well- or poorly controlled asthma, enrolled in the Italian sites of the NEWTON real-world study, were asked to complete the provisional version of SCFH and three validated questionnaires, the Stanford Expectation of Treatment Scale (SETS), the 5-item version of the Asthma Control Questionnaire (ACQ-5), and the Global Rating Scale (GRS). Internal consistency and validity were determined. Moreover, we assessed the minimal clinically important difference (MCID) using anchor-based method. Results: One hundred and ninety-six patients completed the questionnaire at least once at 7 (±1), 14 (±2), or 30 (±3) days after starting BDP/FF NEXThaler Conclusion: The Italian version of SCFH-8 is a valid, short tool with good psychometric properties for determining the speed of change in health perception after starting treatment.
