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

Sarcoidosis is a chronic systemic disease of unknown etiology characterized by non-caseating inflammation involving one or more organs with predilection for pulmonary and upper respiratory tract involvement. It presents with a variety of signs and symptoms which can be generalized or focused on a single organ. Sinonasal involvement is reported in about 1% of cases of sarcoidosis. Sarcoidosis can involve both the mucosa as well as bony structures in the nose and the paranasal sinuses. We present seven cases of sarcoidosis with sinonasal involvement. Four cases presented with nasal and sinus symptoms, and the other three cases developed or presented with nasal and sinus symptoms after the diagnosis of sarcoidosis was confirmed. The nasal and sinus symptoms in these patients were managed by local and systemic steroids. In four patients, endoscopic sinus surgery was performed with good outcome. Nasal and sinus symptoms, differential diagnosis and the treatment are discussed.
