Unilateral Maxillary Sinus Aplasia With Hypoplasia of the Inferior Concha and Absence of the Infundibulum and Uncinate Process: A Case Report.
Article in Clinical case reports, 2025. 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
The maxillary sinus is the first sinus to develop in the human fetus and continues growing until puberty. Maxillary sinus aplasia is a rare condition characterized by the failure of sinus development. A 61-year-old female was referred to the otolaryngology clinic by a maxillofacial surgeon due to abnormalities in her radiograph. She had no history of facial pain, rhinorrhea, chronic sinusitis, nasal congestion, sinonasal surgery, or trauma. Endoscopic evaluation and CT scan revealed isolated right-sided maxillary sinus and uncinate process aplasia. It is crucial for otolaryngologists, dentists, maxillofacial surgeons, and radiologists to be familiar with the anatomical variations of the paranasal sinuses to prevent potential complications and surgical errors in this area.
