Regional Variations in Nasal Parameters in South India: A Descriptive Study.
Article in Journal of maxillofacial and oral surgery, 2024. 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
Background: This paper aims to evaluate and standardize measurements of 11 nasal parameters specific to the South Indian population. This is significant because different ethnicities exhibit varying nasal proportions. The findings of this study will serve as a foundation for rhinoplasty procedures performed on the South Indian population as currently there is a lack of literature in this area of study. Methodology: A total of 136 young individuals of age group 18-30 were taken as a sample; 34 from each state that is Kerala, Karnataka, Tamil Nadu, and Andhra Pradesh were taken up for the study. Standardized photographs of the nose were taken. Eleven nasal parameters were measured using Digimiser software and analyzed. Results: Eight out of eleven parameters have statistically significant differences among the population of all four South Indian states, while three parameters did not have much of a statistically significant difference. Conclusion: When compared to the standard values of nasal parameters of the Indian population, only radix height and nasolabial angle were similar. The nasal index of all four South Indian ethnicities was platyrrhine. The nasal parameters did not differ among males and females in all the four South Indian populations.
