Sino-nasal outcome Test-22 and Lund-Mackay CT score to select endoscopic sinus surgery in chronic rhinosinusitis.
Article in World journal of otorhinolaryngology - head and neck surgery, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Objectives: Chronic rhinosinusitis is one of the common diseases that cause morbidity and affects a person's quality of life. We tried to provide a more appropriate and effective approach to selecting patients for endoscopic sinus surgery. Methods: The study population is chronic rhinosinusitis children referred to the ear, nose, and throat clinic of two general hospitals in Tehran, Iran, who have previously undergone sufficient drug treatment and have not recovered. The Lund-Mackay score is calculated by examining the computed tomography (CT) scan. The Sino-nasal Outcome Test-22 (SNOT-22) questionnaire was provided to the patients before the operation, after the operation, and 3 and 6 months later in the clinic. Results: Before the operation, the most SNOT-22 score people were in the range of 40-59 points. The SNOT-22 score before the operation is significantly different from 3 and 6 months after the operation. The highest frequency of Lund-Mackay CT (LMCT) scan score was in the range of 18-23 points. The LMCT scan score did not show any significant relationship with the SNOT-22 score before surgery, 3 months, and 6 months after surgery. Sensitivity to aspirin had a significant relationship with SNOT-22 scores and the history of asthma and nasal polyps had a significant relationship with the preoperative LMCT scan score. Conclusions: The LMCT scan scoring system cannot be a good measure of chronic rhinosinusitis severity or the prognosis of patients after surgery. The SNOT-22 questionnaire can be used as a predictive tool to help the doctor and the patient in deciding to operate and the possibility of obtaining a relative recovery.
