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

Background: Respiratory multimorbidities are linked to asthma, such as allergic rhinitis (AR) with early allergic asthma and chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) with late nonallergic asthma. Objective: Our aim was to investigate the association of asthma severity and control with specific upper airway phenotypes. Method: Patients with asthma were prospectively recruited from 23 pulmonology and ear, nose, and throat clinics. Asthma severity and control, as well as upper airway comorbidities (AR and non-AR [NAR], CRSwNP, and CRS without nasal polyps [CRSsNP]) were assessed according to international consensus guidelines definitions. Results: A total of 492 asthmatic patients were included. Half of the asthmatic patients (49.6%) had associated rhinitis (37.0% had AR and 12.6% had NAR) and 36.2% had CRS (16.7% had CRSsNP and 19.5% had CRSwNP), whereas 14.2% had no sinonasal symptoms. Most cases of AR (78%) and NAR (84%) were present in patients with mild-to-moderate asthma, whereas CRSwNP was more frequent in patients with severe asthma (35% [ Conclusion: Severe asthma is associated with CRSwNP, with sinus occupancy affecting asthma control. This study has identified 2 main different upper airway treatable traits, AR and CRSwNP, which need further evaluation to improve management and control of patients with asthma.
