Impact of Topical Corticosteroid Irrigations on Sinonasal Wound Healing.
Article in American journal of rhinology & allergy, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
BackgroundChronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) is a chronic inflammatory disease frequently requiring surgical intervention and the long-term use of topical corticosteroids to control patient symptoms. However, corticosteroids may delay postoperative recovery following sinus surgery by disrupting tissue inflammation, a key mediator of early wound healing. This study therefore seeks to assess the impact of topical corticosteroids on sinonasal epithelial healing following local injury.MethodsPrimary human nasal epithelial cells (HNECs) were collected from two patients with CRSwNP and differentiated at air-liquid interface (ALI). A linear scratch was introduced to each monolayer of differentiated HNECs, followed by apical treatment with or without budesonide (2 μg/mL) to simulate topical use. Live-cell imaging assessed time to wound closure. Epithelial barrier function was assessed with trans-epithelial electrical resistance (TEER) before the injury as a baseline, immediately post-injury, and at 12 and 24 hours.ResultsAll wounds closed within 19 hours. The average time to wound closure was 15.1 hours for CRSwNP HNECs exposed to budesonide and 12.3 hours for those exposed to control media. This difference was statistically significant (
