Computed tomographic features of clinically suspected rhinitis in domestic rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus).

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
backgroundThe aim of this study was to characterise the computed tomographic (CT) findings in domestic rabbits with clinically suspected rhinitis and compare them with CT findings in rabbits without clinical signs of rhinitis.
methodsCT images of rabbits that underwent a CT of the head were retrospectively reviewed and any CT abnormalities were described. Statistical analysis was performed to detect any association between the CT findings and clinical signs of rhinitis, and also to assess if there was any association between rhinitis and otitis media, otitis externa or dental disease.
resultsThirty-three of the 133 rabbits included in the study had soft tissue-attenuating material within their nasal cavities and were therefore classified as having CT findings compatible with rhinitis. CT evidence of rhinitis was correlated with the presence of clinical signs of rhinitis and with the presence of otitis media. There was no statistical association between CT evidence of rhinitis and the presence of otitis externa or dental disease. LIMITATIONS: The retrospective nature of the study, small sample size and lack of aetiological confirmation limit the conclusions that can be drawn from the findings.
conclusionClinical signs of rhinitis were associated with CT abnormalities consistent with rhinitis and CT evidence of otitis media. The results of this study provide useful information for CT assessment of the nasal cavities of domestic rabbits and can be used as a reference for the diagnosis of rhinitis in this species.
