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
purposeEndotype-driven treatment has been introduced in the management of chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP), and an understanding of the associations between phenotypes and endotypes of CRSwNP will be beneficial in identifying responders. We aimed to determine the correlations between clinical manifestations and type 2 inflammatory mediators of sinonasal tissues.
methodsAdult patients undergoing endoscopic sinus surgery for bilateral CRSwNP were prospectively enrolled. Tissue eosinophilia and type 2 mediator expression in tissue homogenates were assessed and correlated with clinical features, including symptoms, comorbidities, blood eosinophil counts, specific allergen immunoglobulin (IgE) testing, computed tomography (CT) scan findings, and Sino-Nasal Outcome Test-22 scores.
resultsA total of 93 subjects were recruited in our study. Fifty-nine (63.4%) cases were identified as the eosinophilic endotype, demonstrating with higher rates of comorbidity of asthma, blood eosinophilia and a high ethmoid-maxillary ratio on CT images. To correlate of phenotypes with the inflammatory mediator profile, multivariate analyses revealed the associations of IgE expression in nasal polyp tissues with allergen sensitization (p = 0.042), CT ethmoid-maxillary ratio (p = 0.001) and tissue eosinophil counts (p = 0.022); the association of interleukin (IL-5) expression with the blood eosinophil percentage (p = 0.020); and the association of IL-13 expression with white blood cell count (p = 0.002) and central compartment-type inflammation (p < 0.001).
conclusionWe demonstrated associations of IgE and IL-5 expression with clinical features of eosinophilic-type inflammation and a significantly elevated level of IL-13 in patients with central-compartment-type CRSwNP. These observations may be useful when considering the use of type 2 biologic treatment and require further validation studies.
