Extraction of sphenochoanal polyp with functional endoscopic sinus surgery approach: A rare case and review article.
Article in International journal of surgery case reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundSphenochoanal polyp, a rare case of nasal polyp, is a benign mass that originates in the sphenoid sinus and develops into a choanal polyp. CASE PRESENTATION: A 36-year-old Indonesian male complained of irregular right nasal obstruction and runny nose for one year. Physical examination showed soft tissue mass in the right nasal cavity, cyst retention in the right maxillary sinus, right sphenoid sinus, and cervical spondylosis. Diagnosis of sphenochoanal polyp was supported by nasoendoscopy and CT-Scan of paranasal sinuses. The patient got medical care and underwent functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS) and rinsed the nose with normal saline and topical steroids. Evaluation at six months after the surgery, the patient came without complaint and showed no sign of polyp mass or cysts recurrence, so the patient was declared to have a full recovery. DISCUSSION: FESS is proven effective for managing sphenochoanal polyp and minimizes complications post-surgery and repetition of the polyp.
conclusionFESS is recommended for management of sphenochoanal polyp in term of minimizing recurrency.
