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

The development of chronic sinusitis is a complex multifactorial process characterized by inflammation of nasal and sinus mucosa. Many studies have shown that the composition of the inflammatory substrate in chronic sinusitis is similar to that seen in allergic rhinitis and in the late-phase response to antigen challenge. Mononuclear cells, consisting of T and B lymphocytes and activated eosinophils, are prominent in the sinus mucosa of patients with chronic sinusitis, especially in atopic patients. Cellular recruitment and activation of the inflammatory infiltrate have been largely attributed to the effects of T(H)2 cytokines (namely interleukin -4, IL-5, IL-13, and granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor). Current treatment of allergic chronic sinusitis consists of nasal corticosteroids and immunotherapy. A subgroup of steroid-insensitive patients demonstrates an overexpression of a variant of the glucocorticoid receptor (GR). Despite these advances, the management and treatment of chronic sinusitis is often fraught with failures and remains a frustrating task for both physician and patient.
