Prevalence of rhinosinusitis among atypical cystic fibrosis patients.

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 objective of this paper is to study the correlation between sinonasal involvement and type of cystic fibrosis (CF) in Israeli's CF patients. The comparative study includes 70 CF patients: 40 typical and 30 atypical CF patients. History and physical examination data were recorded, including endoscopic nasal examination as well as sinus computer tomography scan. The data collected from the two groups were statistically analyzed. Twenty-seven percent of atypical CF patients compared with 2.5% of typical CF patients had CF presenting symptoms of chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) or obstructive nasal polyps (p < 0.001). Although severe CRS was found slightly more often in patient with atypical CF (43 vs. 32.5%), this difference did not reach statistical significance. Nine patients with severe CRS underwent endoscopic sinus surgery. Among these patients, six (66.6%) had atypical CF and only three (33.3%) had typical CF (p = 0.09). In conclusion, severe CRS is a common diagnosis among patients with typical and atypical CF disease. In the current study, no significant difference in the frequency of CRS was found between the two groups. High awareness toward the diagnosis of atypical CF, careful medical history focusing on sinonasal involvement and physical examination, including nasal endoscopy, for all CF patients (typical and atypical CF) may contribute to an early detection and treatment of significant sinonasal involvement, and may improve the quality of life of the patients.
