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

introductionChronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) with and without nasal polyposis is a chronic inflammatory disease of the sinuses and nasal mucosa. Recent evidence has indicated a relationship between serum 25-hydroxyl vitamin D (OH-VitD) deficiency and CRS. Regarding this, the present study aimed to compare the serum level of 25-OH-VitD in CRS patients with and without nasal polyposis and control groups. MATERIALS AND

methodsThis study was conducted on 117 adult subjects in three groups of CRS with nasal polyposis (CRSwNP; n=32), CRS without nasal polyposis (CRSsNP; n=35), and healthy controls (n=50). The mean level of serum 25-OH-VitD in the three groups was measured by means of enzyme- linked immunosorbent assay. The data were analyzed using SPSS software (version 18).

resultsMean serum levels of 25-OH-VitD in CRSwNP, CRSsNP, and control groups were 12.52, 15.54, and 22.04 ng/ml, respectively. There was a significant difference between the case and control groups in terms of 25-OH-VitD level (P=0.0001). However, no significant difference was observed between the CRSwNP and CRSsNP groups in this regard (P=0.464). The women had a VitD deficiency odds ratio (OR) of 2.47, compared with men (OR=2.47, 95% CI=1.04-5.86). The OR of VitD deficiency with aging was obtained as 0.957 (95% CI=0.925-0.989). In this regard, older patients had a lower probability of VitD deficiency, compared to younger patients.

conclusionAs the findings indicated, serum 25-OH-VitD was significantly lower in CRS patients, compared with that in the non-CRS subjects.
