Impact of ASD and ADHD on pediatric asthma exacerbations: a retrospective analysis of the Nationwide Inpatient Sample 2005-2020.
Article in Italian journal of pediatrics, 2025. 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
backgroundTo explore the impact of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) on in-hospital outcomes in children hospitalized for asthma exacerbations.
methodsThis retrospective study utilized data from the Nationwide Inpatient Sample (NIS) database between 2005 and 2020. We included children aged 5 to 19 years admitted for asthma exacerbations. Children were categorized into four groups: those with ASD only, ADHD only, both ASD and ADHD, and neither condition. Propensity score matching was used to balance baseline characteristics.
resultsA total of 155,893 children hospitalized for asthma were identified, with 2,443 patients remaining after propensity score matching. Children with both ASD and ADHD had the highest total hospital costs, followed by those with ASD alone. Children with both ASD and ADHD had significantly increased risks of overall complications (aOR = 1.69, 95% CI: 1.27-2.26), including epilepsy (aOR = 3.56, 95% CI: 1.61-7.87), pneumonia (aOR = 2.00, 95% CI: 1.33-3.03), and constipation (aOR = 4.22, 95% CI: 1.58-11.26), compared to those without either condition. Children with ASD alone also had elevated risks for epilepsy (aOR = 3.79, 95% CI: 1.79-8.03) and constipation (aOR = 4.33, 95% CI: 1.78-10.54).
conclusionIn the US children hospitalized for asthma exacerbations, those with both ASD and ADHD, or ASD alone, face significantly greater costs and higher risks of specific complications, particularly epilepsy, pneumonia, and constipation. The findings suggest a compounded impact of these neurodevelopmental conditions on asthma children, emphasizing the need for specialized care to manage these patients effectively and reduce the risks.
