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

Granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA) is a systemic vasculitis that is associated with antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (c-ANCA). It classically presents with sinonasal, pulmonary and renal involvement. We are presenting a case of a 32-year-old male who presented with septal perforation, crusting and nasal obstruction. He had been operated on twice for sinonasal polyposis. Relevant investigations revealed that he was actually suffering from GPA. The patient was started on remission induction therapy. A combination of methotrexate and prednisolone was started with a 2-weekly follow-up. The patient had experienced his symptoms for 2 years before presentation. This case highlights the importance of correlating ENT and pulmonary symptoms to reach the correct diagnosis.
