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.

Abstract

Purpose: Chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) is a predominantly type 2 inflammatory disease frequently coexisting with other type 2 conditions including asthma and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug-exacerbated respiratory disease (NSAID-ERD). Coexisting asthma leads to increased CRSwNP symptom burden. Dupilumab, a monoclonal antibody that blocks the shared receptor component for interleukin-4 and -13, demonstrated efficacy in adults with severe CRSwNP in the Phase 3 SINUS-24 (NCT02912468) and SINUS-52 (NCT02898454) studies, including in patients with coexisting asthma/NSAID-ERD. However, the impact of different asthma characteristics on dupilumab treatment in this population is unknown. We report CRSwNP and asthma outcomes with dupilumab in patients with CRSwNP and coexisting asthma according to baseline asthma characteristics. Methods: Change from baseline at Week 24 (pooled studies) and Week 52 (SINUS-52) in CRSwNP outcomes (nasal polyp score, nasal congestion, 22-item Sino-Nasal Outcome Test [SNOT-22], loss of smell score, University of Pennsylvania Smell Identification Test) and asthma outcomes (5-item Asthma Control Questionnaire [ACQ-5], pre-bronchodilator forced expiratory volume in 1 second [FEV Results: In the pooled studies, 428/724 patients (59.1%) had coexisting asthma, of which 181/428 (42.3%) had coexisting NSAID-ERD. Dupilumab significantly improved all CRSwNP and asthma outcomes vs placebo at Week 24 (P < 0.001) regardless of baseline eosinophil or ACQ-5 category, or FEV Conclusion: Dupilumab improved CRSwNP outcomes in patients with CRSwNP and coexisting asthma, and improved asthma outcomes, regardless of differences in baseline asthma characteristics.
