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

Allergic fungal rhinosinusitis is a non-invasive disease most commonly found in immunocompetent host. In present study we aim to study the role of itraconazole as primary medical management in Allergic Fungal rhinosinusitis in improving treatment outcome and its role in avoidance of surgery. Total of 50 patients of clinically diagnosed AFRS equally divided into 2 groups, one group receiving 3 months of itraconazole and other receiving steroids in tapering dose. Outcome measures used were-nasal endoscopy (Kupferberg score), symptom score (SNOT-20), NCCT-nose pns orbit (Lund-Mackay score) and biochemical, immunological markers with secondary outcomes of adverse effects and avoidance of surgery.
