Asthma and hypertension: the role of airway inflammation.
Article in Frontiers in medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Introduction: Asthma is a chronic inflammatory respiratory disease often associated with comorbidities. Among cardiovascular comorbidities, arterial hypertension seems to create an additional health burden in asthmatics. However, evidence on this relationship is lacking. Objective: Our study aims to evaluate the characteristics of hypertensive asthmatics, focusing on the role of inflammation as a possible link between these diseases. Methods: We conducted a monocentric retrospective analysis consecutively including asthmatics who underwent induced sputum (IS) at our asthma referral center. Patients were divided in two groups according to presence or absence of history of hypertension. Clinical, functional, and inflammatory (airway and systemic) data were collected. Results: Data on two hundred and sixty asthmatic patients were analyzed. Seventy-nine (30.4%) of them had a diagnosis of hypertension requiring a specific pharmacological treatment. Asthmatics with hypertension were more frequently male ( Conclusion: Our data suggest that neutrophilic airway inflammation (as evaluated by induced sputum) is strictly associated with hypertension. In clinical practice, phenotyping asthmatic patients with comorbidities like hypertension could be useful also from a therapeutic point of view. Additional studies are mandatory to further elucidate the role of neutrophilic airway inflammation in asthma with cardiovascular diseases.
