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

Introduction: Children with allergic rhinitis (AR) may develop comorbidities due to chronic inflammation affecting other systems. Surveillance, early detection, and prompt treatment are essential in managing these conditions. Objectives: To investigate the prevalence and associated characteristics of ear, nose, and throat (ENT) disorders, particularly adenoid hypertrophy (AH), tonsillar hypertrophy (TH), otitis media with effusion (OME), and rhinosinusitis (RS) in children with AR. Also, to assess potential risk factors associated with these comorbidities. Methods: A total of 100 children aged 2 to 14 years with AR were enrolled. All patients underwent history taking, physical examination, and lateral skull X-ray processes by a pediatric otorhinolaryngologist. Results: There was a significantly higher incidence of TH in patients with moderate-to-severe persistent AR (54.5%) compared with those with mild intermittent AR (17.2%; Conclusion: The most common ENT comorbidity in AR children is TH, being related substantially to the level of severity. The most prevalent aeroallergen was found to be house dust mite. The pattern of association between AR and ENT comorbidities highlights the essence of our research findings.
