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 9 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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

Eosinophilic chronic rhinosinusitis (ECRS) encompasses a wide variety of etiologies. To date, a unifying pathophysiologic mechanism remains elusive. Eosinophilia is frequently, but not exclusively, caused by immunoglobulin (Ig)E-mediated hypersensitivity and is dominated by the associated cytokine milieu of Th2 inflammation. The provisional subcategories of ECRS include superantigen-induced eosinophilic chronic rhinosinusitis, allergic fungal sinusitis, nonallergic fungal eosinophilic chronic rhinosinusitis, and aspirin-exacerbated eosinophilic chronic rhinosinusitis. Within each subcategory, recent findings supporting distinct mechanisms that promote eosinophilic infiltration are presented, and, therefore, targeted therapeutic interventions with specific antibacterial, antifungal, or immune modulation may be indicated.
