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

Objective: The objective of this study was to analyse the aetiology, clinical presentations, histopathology and microbiological aspects of fungal rhinosinusitis (FRS) in patients undergoing endoscopic surgery. Methods: The descriptive study was carried out over a 4-year period in two Serbian ENT Clinics and included patients with sinonasal pathology who underwent endoscopic surgery. Results: The study included 26 patients. The most common forms of FRS treated by endoscopic sinus surgery was allergic FRS (AFRS). The fungus identification rate varied between entities, and was 72.2% in AFRS and 33.3% in fungal ball specimens. The common species seen in AFRS isolates were Conclusions: This study emphasises the need to combine all types of clinical, radiology, pathohistological and microbiological methods to obtain the best diagnostic and treatment strategies and should be the basis for further research.
