Clinicopathological and Radiological Features of Chronic Rhinosinusitis with Eosinophilic Mucin in Chungcheong Province of Korea.

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 (CRS) with eosinophilic mucin is considered rare in Korea. The object of this study was to categorize CRS patients with eosinophilic mucin into several groups and compared the groups based on their clinicopathological and radiological features.
methodsIn total, 105 CRS patients with eosinophilic mucin from four tertiary medical centers which are located at Chungcheong province of Korea were included for this study. The patients were divided into four groups for analysis, based on the presence or absence of an allergy (A) to a fungus or fungal element (F) in the mucin. The following were the four groups: allergic fungal rhinosinusitis (AFRS, A+F+), AFRS-like sinusitis (A+F-), eosinophilic fungal rhinosinusitis (EFRS, A-F+), and eosinophilic mucin rhinosinusitis (EMRS, A-F-). Their clinical manifestation, the presence of associated disease, radiological finding, treatment, and treatment outcome were reviewed and compared.
resultsThere were no patients in the AFRS-like sinusitis group, 47 patients were assigned to the AFRS group, 27 to the EFRS group, and 41 to the EMRS group. Patients of AFRS group showed a significantly higher association with allergic rhinitis than did the other groups. The mean total serum IgE level in the AFRS patients was significantly higher than in the EFRS and EMRS patients. In the AFRS group and EFRS group, 67.6% and 74.1% had unilateral disease, respectively, in contrast to the EMRS group (4.9%). The mean Hounsfield unit values of the area of high attenuation in the AFRS patients were significantly higher than those in the other groups.
conclusionsSignificant clinicopathological differences existed among the subgroups of CRS with eosinophilic mucin. AFRS tends to be an allergic response to colonizing fungi in atopic individuals. In EFRS, local allergies to fungi might play a role in the disease. EMRS is thought to be unconnected with fungal allergies, and it showed different form compared with the AFRS and EFRS groups.
