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

purpose of reviewTo map evidence supporting a chronic upper airway inflammatory continuum (CUAIC) linking localized allergic inflammation, central compartment atopic disease (CCAD), diffuse type 2 chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS), and broader T2-airway disease. RECENT

findingsA scoping review of five databases identified 58 studies from January 2014 to April 2026. Evidence described a non-linear spectrum extending from local allergic rhinitis and localized sinonasal responses to CCAD, diffuse CRSwNP, and lower-airway comorbidity. Endoscopy provided the clearest anatomical anchor, with CCAD representing a recognizable central-compartment phenotype. Radiological findings ranged from limited central changes to multi-sinus opacification, while biomarkers suggested enrichment from local allergic markers to tissue eosinophilia, type 2 cytokine activity, and lower-airway traits. The CUAIC conceptualizes CCAD as an intermediate or overlapping phenotype between localized sinonasal allergy and broader type 2 airway disease. It reflects persistence, overlap, or expansion rather than an obligatory sequence. Prospective longitudinal studies are needed to validate its clinical utility.
