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
backgroundChronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) affects approximately 4% of general population. Patients with CRSwNP have greater burden of CRS symptoms and higher rate of relapse after either medical or surgical treatments. The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between polypoid change of anterior free border of middle turbinate and rate of relapse in patients with CRSwNP.
methodsA controlled prospective cohort study was performed. Seventy-seven adult patients with CRSwNP in whom their MT polypoid change was proved and 77 patients without MT polypoid change were recruited. Allergy, asthma, aspirin hypersensitivity, Lund Kennedy and Lund Mackay scores and eosinophilic scores of polyp and middle turbinate were recorded. Patient's health-related quality of life was assessed using the 22-item Sino-Nasal Outcome Test (SNOT-22) questionnaire. All patients were evaluated 12 months after ESS. Polyp relapse, Lund Kennedy scores and SNOT-22 scores were documented.
resultsThe relapse rate in patients with MT polypoid change was significantly higher than the control group (37.14 vs. 20.58, p value = 0.03). Eosinophil score of nasal polyps and MT specimens were significantly higher in patients with MT polypoid change than patients without polypoid change. The postoperative Lund Kennedy and SNOT-22 scores in patients with MT polypoid change were significantly higher than the control group.
conclusionThis study showed a significant association between polypoid change of anterior free border of middle turbinate and nasal polyp relapse. This new and simple criterion of severity of CRSwNP could have clinical implications.
