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

Localized amyloidosis involving the nasal mucosa is rare, with only 38 published cases reported to date. We report a case of amyloidosis localized to the sinonasal tract. A 61-year-old man presented with a 1-year history of left-sided nasal obstruction. Endoscopic examination and computed tomography revealed the presence of a nasal mass originating from the left inferior turbinate. The patient subsequently underwent an examination under anesthesia and an excision biopsy of the nasal mass. Histology confirmed amyloidosis with no immunospecific stains. Systemic amyloidosis testing was negative, leading to a diagnosis of localized sinonasal amyloidosis of nonamyloid A (AA) subtype. To our knowledge, this is the second reported case of non-AA subtype of the sinonasal tract. The patient was managed conservatively and is currently under close follow-up.
