Comparison of Inflammatory Markers for Prediction of Recurrence of Nasal Polyp after Functional Endoscopy Sinus Surgery.
Article in Indian journal of otolaryngology and head and neck surgery : official publication of the Association of Otolaryngologists of India, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
The study was carried out to correlate the inflammatory markers (NLR, ELR, PLR) before and after endoscopic sinus surgery and their role in the prediction of recurrent nasal polyps. This was a hospital-based observational study carried out the 43 patients, aged between 18-45 years, admitted to the department of ENT with CRSwNP and underwent endoscopic sinus surgery. NLR, ELR & PLR values were compared for each patient and calculated from complete blood counts taken before and after surgery follow-up period at post-op 1st week, 3rd week, 3rd month, and 6th month. In our study, 12 out of 43 patients who underwent ESS showed recurrence. The mean value of ELR was higher in the pre-operative and post-operative 1st week in recurrent nasal polyp patients than in non-recurrent nasal polyps. (p-value < 0.05) but there were no significant changes in ELR values in subsequent follow-ups. There were no significant changes in NLR & PLR in the pre-operative and post-operative periods. Although recurrence was common in CRSwNP after endoscopic sinus surgery. Inflammatory markers could be used to predict the chances of recurrence. In our study, ELR is a better parameter than NLR and PLR in the assessment of the chance of recurrence.
