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

backgroundNon-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs)-exacerbated respiratory disease (N-ERD) complicates the clinical course of chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) and severe asthma. We aimed to determine the detection rate of NERD in patients with CRSwNP, asthma, and history of NSAID intolerance using nasal challenge with acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) and the relationship between the severities of response to ASA challenges and the grade of N-ERD. MATERIALS AND

methodsThree groups of patients were included: CRSwNP with asthma and clinical history of analgesics intolerance (CRSwNP-AAI n = 18), CRSwNP with asthma but without a clinical history of analgesics intolerance (CRSwNP-A n = 20), and CRSwNP without asthma or analgesics intolerance (n = 18). All subjects were challenged nasally with 16 mg ASA and monitored with active anterior rhinomanometry. Rhinological (nasal polyp score), pulmonary (spirometry, Asthma Control Test (ACT), and asthma treatment), and psychometric questionnaire scores were recorded and correlated with rhinomanometric data following nasal challenges (flow depressions and symptom scores).

resultsNasal ASA challenge detected N-ERD in 96.7% of CRSwNP-AAI patients and 45% of CRSwNP-A patients. No N-ERD was seen in the CRSwNP group. The control grade of asthma measured with ACT scores was significantly lower in the groups CRSwNP-AAI (MV 18.22) and CRSwNP-A (MV 19.75) when compared to the CRSwNP group (MV 24.39) (p = 0.000). In the CRSwNP-AAI group, 11 patients had uncontrolled asthma (61%), and in the CRSwNP-A group, 9 patients had uncontrolled asthma (45%). No correlation was found between rhinology and pulmonary parameters, nasal symptoms, and the severity of nasal ASA challenges. Specific reactions were detectable under the therapy of prednisolone and omalizumab.

conclusionN-ERD might not always be detected by screening a patient's medical history. Nasal ASA challenges are recommended in patients with CRSwNP and asthma. The nasal challenge with ASA positively confirms the N-ERD diagnosis. Moreover, N-ERD is a differential diagnosis in patients with severe asthma with the need for prednisolone or omalizumab therapy. The severity of the reaction to the ASA challenge in controlled and uncontrolled asthma patients is independent of the grade of N-ERD.
