Review in Current opinion in otolaryngology & head and neck surgery, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT05015530 (Assessment of Sino-nasal Microbial Communities Changes in Adult Patients With Chronic Rhinosinusitis by 16 rRNA Gene Amplicon Sequencing Before and After 1-month Treatment Duration With Healsea® Chronic), which is not on this map. Cited by 38 papers.

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.

Abstract

purpose of reviewThe development of culture-independent bacterial DNA sequencing techniques and integration into research practice has led to a burgeoning interest in the microbiome and its relevance to human health and disease. Introduction into the study of chronic rhinosinusitis in the past few years has shaped current thinking on the role of bacteria in the disease process. RECENT

findingsRich and diverse populations of bacteria inhabit the sinonasal cavity at all times. Decreased bacterial richness and diversity may be associated with disease state and outcomes. SUMMARY: Although there is much to be explored, the sinus microbiome appears to have potentially promising roles in many aspects of sinus health and disease.
