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

backgroundChronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) is a recurrent inflammatory disease associated with several comorbidities and a significant disease burden for patients. Treatments include corticosteroids and sinonasal surgery, but these can be associated with the risk of adverse events and nasal polyp recurrence. Biologic treatments such as mepolizumab can be used as an add-on treatment and are effective at reducing surgery and corticosteroid use. MAIN TEXT: Patients with CRSwNP may be seen by a specialist in one of several different areas and often experience delayed diagnosis due to the need to see multiple physicians, as well as misdiagnosis resulting from lack of sufficient expertise within any one speciality. Multidisciplinary team (MDT) approaches have been shown to be effective in optimising the treatment and clinical management of other respiratory diseases, such as aspirin-exacerbated respiratory disease and severe asthma. In CRSwNP, an MDT approach may reduce diagnostic delays, mitigate secondary disease burden, and reduce overprescription of corticosteroids and antibiotics.

conclusionThis article provides an overview of the patient perspective of MDTs, existing approaches and barriers to adoption, lessons learnt from allied and rare diseases, how to address under-recognised aspects of CRSwNP, and other key considerations for developing an MDT approach.
