Interdisciplinary challenges and aims of flap or graft reconstruction surgery of sinonasal cancers: What radiologists and radiation oncologists need to know.
Review in Frontiers in oncology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
In sinonasal cancer surgery, a fundamental challenge is to understand the postoperative imaging changes after reconstruction. Misinterpretation of post-operative imaging may lead to a misdiagnosis of tumor recurrence. Because radiotherapy planning is based on imaging, there are many gaps in knowledge to be filled in the interpretation of postoperative imaging to properly define radiotherapy tumor volumes in the presence of flaps. On the other hand, radiotherapy may be responsible for tissue fibrosis or atrophy, the anatomy of the reconstructed region and the functional outcomes may change after radiotherapy compared to surgery alone. This narrative review illustrates the interdisciplinary aims and challenges of sinonasal reconstructive surgery using flaps or grafts. It is particularly relevant to radiologists and radiation oncologists, at a time when intensity modulated radiotherapy and proton therapy have the potential to further contribute to reduction of morbidity.
