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
Post-operative management of chronic rhinosinusitis is very crucial for outcomes following surgery, Normal saline nasal irrigation and steroid spray form the standard treatment of care in this period. However nasal irrigation may not be adequate and spray is usually started after 2 weeks of surgery which in any case does not deliver optimum dosage of drug to the paranasal sinus mucosa. Budesonide nasal irrigation in a high-volume low-pressure system could be the solution for a better outcome. A double blinded randomized control trial with 88 patients in 2 groups of 44 each received normal saline or Budesonide nasal irrigation (0.5 mg in 200 ml) twice daily. Patients were followed up at 2 weeks post-operatively and 3 months, a SNOT 22 and Lund Kennedy Endoscopic scores were assessed for subjective and objective assessment. Subset analysis of only CRS patients (55) were done, and results presented. Patient reported subjective score at 3 months post operatively, SNOT22 was significantly (
