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

purposeChronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is classified into type 2 (T2) and non-T2 inflammation. T2 CRS presents as a severe form, CRS with nasal polyps (CRSwNP), which often occurs with asthma as a comorbidity worldwide. Some cases of non-T2 CRS show nasal polyposis and refractoriness, mainly in Asian countries. However, its mechanism remains elusive. To investigate a biomarker for the refractoriness of non-T2 CRSwNP via RNA sequencing.

methodsRNA sequencing by using nasal polyps (NPs) and ethmoidal mucosa (EM) from CRS subjects and uncinate tissues from controls was performed, and differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were analyzed (cutoffs: expression change > 2-fold,

resultsWe identified DEGs among T2-NP, non-T2-NP, T2-EM, non-T2-EM, and controls (NP vs. controls: 1,877 genes, EM vs. controls: 1,124 genes, T2-NP vs. controls: 1,790 genes, non-T2-NP vs. controls: 2,012 genes, T2-EM vs. controls: 740 genes, non-T2-EM vs. controls: 1,553 genes). The Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway analysis showed that neutrophil extracellular trap (NET) formation, systemic lupus erythematosus, and the phagosome were enriched in non-T2-NP vs. controls and non-T2-EM vs. controls. Immunofluorescence staining confirmed that NETs were elevated in non-T2-NP. Cytokine analysis demonstrated that NETs were significantly related to the refractoriness in non-T2-NPs.

conclusionsThis study demonstrated DEGs between T2 and non-T2 inflammation. These results suggest that NETs may contribute to the refractoriness in non-T2-NPs and have a promise as a therapeutic strategy for patients with refractory non-T2-NP.
