'Juvenile' nasal angiofibroma presenting in adulthood.

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
Juvenile nasopharyngeal angiofibromas (JNAs) are rare hyper vascular, benign tumours typically demonstrating a locally aggressive growth pattern. The cardinal presenting symptoms are unilateral nasal obstruction and recurrent, spontaneous epistaxis. Cases outside the adolescent male population are exceedingly rare and present a diagnostic challenge. We present the case of a man in his 30s referred to our tertiary skull base centre, presenting with left nasal obstruction. Examination showed left nasopharyngeal fullness without a discrete mass. Cross-sectional imaging detailed a 2.5×2.1×1.3 cm mass localised to his left sphenoid sinus with bony erosion. Due to the suspicion of malignancy, multidisciplinary consensus was to perform a diagnostic excisional biopsy and this revealed a JNA. He remains clinically well and asymptomatic following surgery. This case highlights the potential for subtle symptomatology in the presentation of these tumours and the challenge in diagnosing a JNA outside the adolescent male population.
