Trajectories in Oxidative Stress and Corticosteroids Insensitivity in Patient with High Risk of Severe Asthma: Use of FeNO as Biomarker of Respiratory Epithelial Barrier Distress.
Article in Life (Basel, Switzerland), 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
backgroundPrecision medicine targets clinical remission, but traditional symptom-based frameworks often ignore the biological pathways driving the disease. Adequate T2 biomarker interpretation is crucial to identify phenotypes where FeNO reflects epithelial barrier distress. We investigated the "clinical-biological gap" through the analysis of six groups to distinguish profiles of symptomatic resilience from biological insensitivity to corticosteroids.
methodsReal-world study of 292 patients stratified into six groups based on BEC (≥250 cells/microL), FeNO (≥25 ppb), and IgE (≥100 kU/L). ACT, BMI, FEV1, comorbidities, and therapeutic burden were analyzed.
resultsThe EoS+ IgE+ group showed "symptomatic resilience": apparent clinical control (54.5% ACT ≥ 20) supported by a critical pharmacological burden (90% salbutamol, 80% OCS ≥ 7.5 mg). The Triple Positive and EoS+ FeNO+ groups depicted "Maximum Steroid Insensitivity," characterized by poor control despite maximal ICS/OCS regimens. FeNO could appear like the primary driver of instability, reflecting a trajectory of oxidative stress not altered by steroids.
conclusionsT2 biomarkers provide a unique prognostic value unidentifiable by standard clinical assessment. FeNO monitoring unmasks silent distress in resilient patients and identifies the "therapeutic wall" in refractory profiles. Therefore biological remission could represents the only effective target to modify the natural history of the disease.
