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

BackgroundAccurate assessment of asthma symptom control is central to effective management. Spirometry is the gold standard for evaluating lung function and monitoring physiological impairment, and the Global Lung Function Initiative (GLI) has developed widely used spirometric reference equations applicable across populations. However, population-specific equations may better reflect regional characteristics. This study examined the impact of using different spirometric reference equations on asthma assessment.MethodsIn this cross-sectional study, pre-bronchodilator forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV
