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
Purpose: Predicting postoperative nasal polyp recurrence (PR) remains challenging because existing approaches rely on single clinical samples and thus fail to capture the complex, multi-compartment biology of the disease. This study aims to determine whether nasal fluid (NF) and serum protein concordance, reflecting the degree of coupling between local nasal and systemic inflammation, provides a more integrated prognostic signature for PR. Patients and Methods: Using the proximity extension assay (PEA), we quantified 92 proteins in NF and serum from 54 nasal polyps (NPs) patients (including 18 PR and 36 non-PR). In this prospective study, with PR assessed after a minimum follow-up of 6 months, NF-serum protein concordance was comprehensively assessed for associations with disease features and PR. Kaplan-Meier analysis and univariate Cox regression identified PR-predictive biomarkers, validated via bulk RNA-seq, single-cell RNA-seq (scRNAseq), immunofluorescence, and public database analysis. Results: Proteomic analysis of NF and serum revealed distinct protein profiles between PR and non-PR groups. Elevated NF-serum concordance was observed in current smokers and asthmatics, and positively correlated with eosinophil counts (r=0.26), pre-surgery Lund-Mackay (LM) scores (r=0.34), nasal VAS (r=0.26) and SNOT-22 scores (r=0.46) (Pearson's test, all Conclusion: Our study first investigated NF-serum proteomic concordance as a predictor of PR and demonstrated the potential of integrated multi-compartment analysis for predicting recurrence.
