A Rare Case of Chronic Rhinosinusitis With Elevated Levels of Immunoglobulin G4.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Chronic rhinosinusitis is a condition characterized by inflammation of the paranasal sinuses causing several symptoms, including facial pain, anosmia, nasal drainage, and obstruction for a minimal duration of three months. It is a commonly occurring disease and is diagnosed through direct visualization or the detection of inflammation on a CT scan. A mucosal tissue biopsy typically reveals stromal fibrosis and an increase in submucosal glands, and infiltration of mixed mononuclear cells, neutrophils, and eosinophils may also be present but typically makes up less than 10% of the total cells. T helper type 2 releasing cytokines, interleukins (IL-5 and IL-13), as well as histamine, are frequently found in high concentrations in polyp tissue. We report a case of rare chronic rhinosinusitis. The patient's specimen shows a very high number of immunoglobulin G4 (IgG4)-positive plasma cells.
