Effects of Functional Rhinoplasty on Nasal Obstruction: A Meta-Analysis.
Synthesis in Aesthetic plastic surgery, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT07580573 (Use of Artificial Intelligence in Assessment of Aesthetic Outcomes in Rhinoplasty), which is not on this map. Cited by 8 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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.

Abstract
backgroundFunctional rhinoplasty (FRP) is used to improve nasal ventilation by correcting problems with the nasal valves. It has not been systematically reviewed on a large scale.
methodsA comprehensive literature search was conducted in the PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library databases to identify studies evaluating nasal obstruction before and after functional rhinoplasty in patients with nasal valve problems.
resultsA total of 57 cohorts from 43 studies involving 2024 patients were included in the current meta-analysis. The Nasal Obstruction Symptom Evaluation (NOSE) scores indicated significant improvement in nasal obstruction at the 1-month follow-up (WMD = 38.12; 95% CI, 29.15-47.10; I
conclusionFRP may have a positive effect on nasal obstruction caused by nasal valve problems. Broader and well-designed studies are needed to shed more light on the relationships in this area.
