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

Acoustic resonance therapy (ART), in which individually calibrated acoustic vibratory energy is delivered to the sinonasal cavities, has been shown to be safe and efficacious to reduce symptoms in adults with allergic and/or nonallergic rhinitis. This prospective, nonrandomized, single-center feasibility study evaluated potential use in pediatric patients age 12 to 21 with a nasal congestion sub-score of ≥2 out of 3 on the Total Nasal Symptom Score (TNSS). Nasal congestion sub-score at baseline was compared with an average of the daily score obtained over 2 weeks on treatment. 31 subjects enrolled. Nasal congestion sub-score changed by -0.76 (95% CI [-0.97, -0.54],
