Impact of nonpharmaceutical interventions on inflammatory diseases of the nose.
Article in Annals of medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
aimThis study aimed to investigate the impact of nonpharmaceutical interventions (NPIs), implemented by the Chinese government during 2020-2022 to reduce the spread of coronavirus disease 2019, on the incidence of inflammatory nasal diseases, including chronic nonallergic rhinitis, allergic rhinitis, acute rhinitis, chronic sinusitis and acute sinusitis.
methodsMedical records from the Department of Otorhinolaryngology of the Hangzhou Normal University Affiliated Hospital were analysed to compare the incidence of the five nasal diseases between the pre-pandemic (January 2018-December 2019) and the pandemic prevention periods (January 2020-December 2022). The Chi-square test was used to compare incidence rates and sex/age distributions.
resultsThe incidence of chronic nonallergic rhinitis, chronic sinusitis and acute sinusitis decreased significantly during the pandemic prevention period (
conclusionsNPIs had a significant impact on the incidence and epidemiology of nasal inflammatory diseases, with significant differences in incidence rate, sex and age distribution between the pre-pandemic and pandemic prevention periods.
