Development and Validation of the Sinonasal Outcome Test-12.
Article in Journal of primary care & community health. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper, 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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
objectivesQuality of life (QoL) questionnaires are widely used in clinical interviews to assess the impact of medical interventions or measure the outcomes of healthcare services. The main aim of such questionnaires is the subjective assessment of health status and its impact on QoL. This study aimed to develop an efficient, short sinonasal disease assessment instrument, the sinonasal outcomes test-12 (SNOT-12), and to compare it with the preexisting SNOT-22.
methodsThis was a two-phase cross-sectional study. The study was performed between June 2019 and February 2020 using the electronic files of the ORL department outpatient clinics at King Fahd University Hospital, affiliated with Imam Abdulrahman Bin Faisal University. The study was performed in 2 phases: an item reduction phase, which resulted in an initial SNOT-12 scale, and a validation phase, using a comparative analysis of the initial SNOT-12 and the SNOT-22.
resultsThe developed short-form SNOT-12 maintained the 4 latent factors extracted in EFA (nasal, Sleep/extra nasal, psychological, ear/facial). It strongly correlated with SNOT-22 (
conclusionsThe SNOT-12 is a short, valid, and reliable instrument that may prove useful for the initial screening and monitoring of patients with chronic rhinosinusitis.
