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

backgroundChronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) exhibits marked symptom heterogeneity that is not fully explained by anatomy or endotypes. Although allergen types shape symptom patterns in allergic rhinitis, largescale systematic analyses linking allergen sensitization profiles to patient-reported outcome measures in patients with CRS are limited.

methodsWe conducted a multicenter, retrospective surgical cohort study (

resultsDominant groups were nonallergic (50%), mite (26%), grass/weed (9%), pet (9%), and tree (5%). Symptoms varied by age and sex, characterized by notably low nasal scores with aging and a high female burden for several items, motivating covariate adjustment. Signature-symptom associations were domain-specific: the pet signature showed the strongest and most consistent associations with nasal domain (such as rhinorrhea and nasal obstruction) and emotion domain (feelings of embarrassment); mite and grass/weed signatures were linked to the function domain (daytime fatigue/productivity); whereas the tree signature showed no significant associations. Seasonal patterns aligned with exposure ecology: grass/weed and tree groups had the largest relative variation (high coefficient of variations), the pet group showed the highest absolute burden year-round, and the mite group varied modestly with winter-spring predominance.

conclusionsAllergen signatures distilled from routine IgE panels explained meaningful variations in CRS patient-reported outcome measures, mapping to distinct symptom domains and seasonal profiles. Incorporating signature information into clinical assessments may support personalized counseling, anticipatory management around exposure windows, and targeted evaluation of environmental or immunologic interventions.
