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

Background: Eosinophilic chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (ECRSwNP) is associated with severe symptoms and poor outcomes, but the diagnostic criteria remain elusive. The objective of this study is to identify preoperative predictors of ECRSwNP using multiple diagnostic thresholds and to propose a clinically actionable risk stratification model. Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on 1081 CRSwNP patients who underwent endoscopic sinus surgery. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were generated to predict ECRSwNP based on clinical features and identify reliable predictors. Results: Both the blood eosinophil count and ratio were identified as indicators for predicting ECRSwNP. The ratio exhibited the strongest correlation with that of tissue ( Conclusion: Blood eosinophil ratio ≥ 3.25% identifies CRSwNP patients at high risk for eosinophilic inflammation, providing a preoperative stratification tool. While correlations between blood and tissue eosinophils were moderate, this threshold balances sensitivity and specificity across heterogeneous diagnostic criteria.
