Efficacy and Safety of Modified Yupingfeng Nasal Spray in Controlling the Recurrence of Persistent and Moderate-Severe Allergic Rhinitis: Study Protocol for a Multicenter, Open-Label, Randomized, and Parallel-Arm Trial.

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
Background: Recurrent episode of allergic rhinitis (AR) is one of the leading illnesses that affects patients. However, there is little research evidence to support pharmacotherapy for AR recurrence. Therefore, this study was designed to explore the efficacy of pharmacotherapy in the control of the recurrence of AR. Methods: In this study, a multicenter, open-label, randomized, and parallel-arm trial will be conducted at three study centers. A total of 190 subjects aged 18-65 with persistent and moderate-severe AR (Qi deficiency and blood stasis syndrome) will be randomly assigned to receive the modified Yupingfeng nasal spray or mometasone furoate aqueous nasal spray. When subjects' rhinitis control assessment test (RCAT) score is >21 for two weeks, they will stop taking the medication and enter the follow-up. Once a relapse occurs, the time point will be recorded, and the follow-up stops. The primary outcome is the six-month recurrence rate of AR after intervention withdrawal. The secondary outcomes are the one-month recurrence rate of AR, the RCAT score, the duration of follow-up, the duration of medication, the nasal endoscopic results, and questionnaires to evaluate symptoms, signs, and quality of life. The mechanism outcomes include some indicators that may be associated with AR recurrence. In addition, electrocardiograms and other safety indicators will be applied to evaluate the drug's safety.
