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
Nasal polyposis (NP) are benign lesion of nasal cavity, affecting up to 1-4% of population. It is known to have up to 70% recurrence rate. The underlying pathophysiology is still undetermined. Recent literatures have thrown light on the viral aetiology for NP. To our knowledge this is the first Indian study done, that aims to evaluate the prevalence of Human papillomavirus (HPV) in NP. It was a prospective case control study done among 40 individuals with NP and 40 healthy controls in a tertiary care centre. All the patients were subjected to routine clinical evaluation, investigations prior to proposed surgeries. The mucosal samples after the surgery were subjected to HPV DNA analysis by RT-PCR. Among the cases, the male to female ratio was 1.3:1. The mean age of patients with NP was 39 ± 14.6. The mean serum IgE levels among the case were 154 IU/ml and was significantly higher as compared to controls. Other inflammatory markers such as absolute eosinophil count, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, and neutrophil to leukocyte ration were found to be not significant. There was no HPV DNA detected among both case as well as controls. There seems to be strong association of IgE and NP, suggesting an IgE mediated pathway for its Causation. There is no association of HPV in NP.
