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 aim of this study was to explore the relationship between children's chronic tonsillitis and Henoch-Schonlein purpura (HSP). We randomly selected 56 cases of HSP children with chronic tonsillitis during December 2009 to December 2012, 26 cases for surgery group and 30 cases for non-surgery. The duration of abdominal pain and rash, 24 hours urine protein quantity, urine red blood cell count, titre of anti streptolysin O (ASO) and complement C3 (C3) were compared and analyzed with statistical method. Compared with the non-surgery group, the duration of abdominal pain and rash, overcast days of urine protein and occult blood in the surgery group were improved significantly (P < 0.05). 24 hours urine protein quantity and urine red blood cell count of the surgery group were improved significantly after surgery (P < 0.01). Chronic tonsillitis was one of the important factors leading to recurrent rash and inducing Henoch-Schonlein purpura nephritis. Tonsillectomy was an alternative mean to treat HSP children with chronic tonsillitis.
