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

Hyaluronic acid has been increasingly involved in recent research due to its many chemical and physical properties. This is a review of the literature for studies involving the use of hyaluronic acid in rhinology. Hyaluronic acid washes and irrigation have been increasingly used in chronic sinusitis medical therapy and post-operatively with mixed results. It has also been shown to play a role in the treatment of nasal polyposis, allergic rhinitis, acute rhinosinusitis and empty nose syndrome. Its effect on biofilm in many disease entities has also been studied. HA is being recently used as ancillary treatment for several rhinologic conditions such as post-operative endoscopy care and chronic sinonasal infections. The properties of HA have intrigued researchers over the past years particularly in biofilm management, healing and inflammation.
