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

Bronchial asthma and its frequent comorbidity chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS), are characterized by an inflammatory process at lower and upper respiratory tract, with a variability in terms of clinical presentations (phenotypes) and distinct underpin pathophysiological mechanisms (endotypes). Based on the characteristics of inflammation, bronchial asthma can be distinguished into type 2 (eosinophilic) or nontype 2 (noneosinophilic) endotypes. In type 2 asthma endotype, the pathogenic mechanism is sustained by an inflammatory process driven by Th2 cells, type 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2) and type 2 cytokines, which include interleukin (IL)-4, IL-5, IL-9 and IL-13. The definition of asthma and chronic rhinusinusitis phenotype/endotype is crucial, taking into account the availability of novel biologic agents, such as monoclonal antibodies targeting the classical type 2 cytokines. Recently, new therapeutic strategies have been proposed and analyzed in preliminary clinical trials. Among them Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitors, now largely used for the treatment of other chronic inflammatory diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis and inflammatory bowel diseases, is receiving great relevance. The rationale of this strategy derives from the data that JAK is a tyrosine kinase involved in the signaling of T cell receptor and of several cytokines that play a role in allergic respiratory disease, such as IL-2, IL-4 and IL-9. In this review, we discuss whether treatment with biological agents and JAK inhibitors may be equally effective in controlling type 2 inflammatory process in both asthma and CRS.
