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: Chronic allergic rhinitis (CAR) is a highly prevalent condition characterized by nasal symptoms and mouth breathing. The detrimental effects of frequent pharmacologic treatment necessitate a nonpharmacologic treatment approach for patients with CAR. Objective: We sought to assess the feasibility, acceptability, safety, and preliminary effects of a nasal rehabilitation program in patients with CAR. Methods: A pilot study was conducted with 35 patients who underwent a nasal rehabilitation program for 5 weeks. The feasibility of the intervention from patient and therapist perspectives, adherence to the treatment, and occurrence of adverse events was recorded posttreatment. The preliminary effects of the treatment on nasal and mouth-breathing symptoms and disease-specific quality of life were assessed at baseline and after 5 weeks of treatment. Results: An adherence of 92.5% was observed for the treatment. The nasal rehabilitation techniques were feasible for patients and the therapist without any adverse events. The intervention demonstrated significant preliminary effects ( Conclusions: Nasal rehabilitation intervention is feasible, acceptable, and safe in patients with CAR. The treatment showed positive preliminary effects with reduced nasal symptoms and enhanced disease-specific quality of life among the patients.
