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.

Abstract

Purpose: Dupilumab significantly reduced the requirement for systemic corticosteroids (SCS) in patients with severe chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP). Patients with CRSwNP and coexisting asthma typically have a higher disease burden and have more difficulty in managing disease. Here, we report an analysis of asthma outcomes and SCS use in patients with CRSwNP and coexisting asthma. Patients and Methods: This was a post hoc analysis of the randomized, placebo-controlled SINUS-24 and SINUS-52 studies (NCT02912468/NCT02898454) in patients with severe CRSwNP and coexisting asthma (patient self-reported) from the pooled intention-to-treat population randomized to dupilumab 300 mg every 2 weeks or placebo. On-treatment SCS use was estimated using Kaplan-Meier analysis. Forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV Results: Of 337 patients with coexisting asthma, 88 (26%) required on-treatment SCS use. The requirement for on-treatment SCS use for any reason was significantly lower with dupilumab (20/167 patients; 12%) vs placebo (68/170; 40%); hazard ratio (95% confidence interval) 0.248 (0.150-0.409); Conclusion: Dupilumab significantly reduced the requirement for SCS and improved asthma outcomes irrespective of history of asthma exacerbation or prior SCS use vs placebo in patients with CRSwNP and coexisting asthma, demonstrating concomitant reduction of SCS use and asthma disease burden in these patients.
