Capsaicin treatment of idiopathic rhinitis: the new panacea?
Review in Current allergy and asthma reports, 2006. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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 management of patients with perennial nonallergic or idiopathic rhinitis is difficult. Diagnosis and treatment are hampered by several factors. First, the diagnosis is made by exclusion of other nasal diseases. As a consequence, idiopathic rhinitis is not defined according to clear-cut criteria. A commonly accepted phenotype of idiopathic rhinitis does not exist. Second, the pathophysiology of idiopathic rhinitis is not yet fully elucidated. In contrast with allergic rhinitis, inflammation does not appear to play an important role in idiopathic rhinitis. Recent studies indicate a neural dysregulation of the nasal mucosa. Additionally, the available therapeutic arsenal comprising both pharmacotherapy and surgery is at best partially efficacious in these patients. The efficacy of repeated capsaicin application has been established in several randomized controlled trials. This treatment modality may be the first step to more specific and better treatment options for patients with idiopathic rhinitis that is unresponsive to standard treatment.
