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
backgroundChronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is a heterogeneous disease. The pathogenesis of chronic sinusitis is still unclear; however, the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses are commonly affected by type 2 inflammation, which is caused by Th2 cytokines such as interleukin (IL)-5, IL-4, and IL-13. Previous studies have shown that pendrin promotes local infiltration of neutrophils through the production of human neutrophil elastase (HNE), which is essential for the secretion of mucin 5AC (MUC5AC) in chronic inflammatory diseases of the lower respiratory tract. This study investigated pendrin expression and its relationship to mucin in type 2 inflammation.
methodsA total of 40 patients (10 CRS patients with nasal polyps,10 CRS patients without nasal polyps, and 20 nasal septum deviation patients) were included in this study and were divided into the CRS group and the NC group. A normal nasal mucosa tissue culture model was established in vitro. IL-13 was used to stimulate primary cultures of human nasal epithelial cells (HNECs). Western blot (WB), enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) were used to detect the expression of pendrin, MUC5AC, and MUC5B. After transfecting HNECs with siRNA pendrin or negative control (NC), EGF receptor (EGFR), HNE, MUC5AC, and MUC5B expression were analyzed using qRT-PCR, WB, or ELISA in terms of their relationships with pendrin. Pendrin expression in the tissue was also analyzed.
resultsAfter IL-13 stimulation, pendrin, MUC5AC, and MUC5B expression levels were upregulated; the optimal concentration of IL-13 was 50 ng/mL. The expression levels of HNE, EGFR, MUC5AC, and MUC5B were downregulated after transfection with siRNA pendrin-1650. Pendrin expression in the NC group was lower than in the CRS group.
conclusionIL-13 is implicated in the inflammation of nasal mucosa, and pendrin is closely related to the excessive secretion of mucin. The expression of mucin is downregulated after transfection with siRNA pendrin. There is a positive relationship between pendrin and EFGR/HNE. Moreover, pendrin plays an important role in type 2 inflammation.
