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

Allergic rhinitis is a global health problem and patients present with varied symptoms. The severity of symptoms is evaluated by a 5 point Nasal Obstruction Symptom Evaluation Scale (NOSE) and levels of absolute eosinophil count (AEC). A prospective observational study was conducted in 140 patients in a tertiary care hospital over a period of 1 year. A detailed clinical examination was performed, NOSE scale scoring based on symptomatology was done, and AEC values were assessed. Subjects were treated with intra nasal steroid spray and symptom evaluation done by NOSE scale at 3 months of use for follow up. NOSE scale and AEC values were correlated in our study. The mean NOSE 1 scale was 64.07 ± 16.71 in the study population, the mean AEC value was 633.07 ± 152.77. In our study correlation between intra nasal steroid spray and NOSE scale has been done. NOSE scale evaluation is simple, economical, and non-invasive. Therefore, it may be used in the management of allergic rhinitis.
