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

purposeWe evaluated the effects of two doses (186 µg and 372 µg) of exhalation delivery system with fluticasone (EDS-FLU) on chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) with nasal polyp as a novel sinonasal delivery system.

methodsWe analyzed 5 studies retrieved from PubMed, SCOPUS, Embase, Web of Science, and Cochrane databases up to April 2024, focusing on subjective and objective scores, and adverse and beneficial effects (responder and complete responder rates, improvements in Patient Global Impression of Change [PGIC] scores, and surgical indication rates before and after EDS-FLU use.

resultsOver 3 months, EDS-FLU significantly reduced polyp (mean difference [MD] - 1.1605; 95% confidence interval [CI] [- 1.3277; -0.9934], I

conclusionBoth doses of EDS-FLU significantly improved subjective and objective outcomes of CRS patients with nasal polyps. However, epistaxis and nasal septal erosive or ulcerative lesions were also considered.
