Review in World journal of otorhinolaryngology - head and neck surgery, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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

Chronic rhinitis and rhinosinusitis are among the most common conditions worldwide with significant morbidity and decreased quality of life. Although the pathogenesis of these conditions is multifactorial, there has been increasing evidence for the role of environmental factors such as aeroallergens and air pollutants as initiating or exacerbating factors. This review will outline the current literature focusing on the role of aeroallergens and air pollution in the pathogenesis of chronic sinonasal inflammatory conditions.
