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

The complex pathophysiology of chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) generates a spectrum of phenotypes with a wide variety of inflammatory states. We enrolled 44 very-likely-to-be type 2 CRSwNP patients in order to evaluate the load of inflammation and to analyze human interleukins in nasal secretion. Clinical data were collected to evaluate the severity of the disease. High levels of IL-5, IL-4, IL-6, and IL-33 were detected in all type 2 CRSwNP patients. By analyzing type 2 cytokine profiles and local eosinophil count, we identified two coherent clusters: the first was characterized by high levels of IL-4, IL-5, IL-6, and a high-grade eosinophil count (type 2-high); the second had lower levels of cytokines and poor or absent eosinophilic inflammation (type-2 low). IL-5 levels were significantly higher within the type 2 cytokine and it was the most reliable biomarker for differentiating the two clusters. In type 2-high inflammatory profile clinical scores, the mean number of previous surgeries and need for systemic corticosteroids were significantly higher compared to type 2-low. Our research demonstrated the potential role of type 2 biomarkers, and in particular, of IL-5 in identifying patients with a more severe phenotype based on a high inflammatory load.
