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

aimThe relationship between bronchiolitis and asthma is complex. We assessed whether patients admitted to a paediatric intensive care unit (PICU) with bronchiolitis had a greater risk of developing asthma than patients admitted to a paediatric ward.

methodsWe retrospectively included children under 1 year of age, who were hospitalised for bronchiolitis for the first time at the University Hospital of Caen, France, between 2010 and 2014. The children were divided into two groups: 89 were admitted to the paediatric ward and 89 were admitted to the PICU. We wanted to assess which group developed more asthma before 6 years of age. The Global Initiative for Asthma definition was used.

resultsThe median age of the 178 children (55% boys) was 32 (interquartile range 19-56) days. We found that 35% of the PICU group and 19% of the ward group had asthma at 6 years of age. The mean onset of symptoms was 3 years earlier in the PICU group than the ward group (p < 0.01). Both these findings were significant.

conclusionThe severity of the first episode of bronchiolitis increased the risk of developing asthma symptoms. Regular follow-ups are suggested for infants admitted to PICUs for bronchiolitis.
