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

Introduction: Despite well-defined clinical phenotypes of chronic rhinitis, the underlying in-depth pathophysiological mechanism, particularly with reference to the involvement of immune mediators, genetic, and environmental factors, are still not fully understood. Therefore, our aim was to give updated information on the pathogenesis of allergic rhinitis (AR), with an emphasis on the role of cytokines in adults aged 18 years and above. Additionally, we investigated the impact of genetic and environmental factors in the pathogenesis of AR. Results: A search in various databases identified 1,178 records, and 18 studies were ultimately selected from January 2018 to April 2023. The total sample size in our studies was 4,317, with 2,186 in the experimental and 2,131 in control groups, respectively. The mean age was 33.4 years, with 43% were male, while 57% were female. According to the selected studies, various factors, including immune mediators, particularly cytokines, genetic, and environmental factors, were identified in the development of AR. Conclusion: The selected studies presented findings on different factors and sub-factors in the pathogenesis of AR, making it a challenge for us to compare their results. However, based on our findings, researchers can link our identified factors to potential therapies for AR.
