Assessment of the prevalence of nasal deviation in patients requiring orthognathic surgery: association with maxillary, mandibular, or chin asymmetry.

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
purposeIdentifying nasal deviation in patients requiring orthognathic surgery is critical for developing an accurate treatment plan, particularly in the axial plane. This study aimed to evaluate the prevalence and degree of nasal and septal deviation in patients requiring orthognathic surgery, and to assess their relationship with maxillary, mandibular, and chin asymmetries, as well as dento-skeletal class. MATERIAL AND
methodsA retrospective study was conducted on patients who required orthognathic surgery between July 2020 and February 2021. Exclusion criteria included congenital craniofacial anomalies, history of mandibular condylar hyperplasia, or prior rhino-septoplasty procedures.
resultsOf the 103 patients studied, 97.1% exhibited some degree of nasal deviation, and all presented with septal deviation. Nasal septum deviation correlated significantly with nasal tip deviation (r = 0.44, p < 0.001) and dorsum deviation (r = 0.41, p < 0.001). A combination of nasal, maxillary, mandibular, and chin deviations was present in 77.3%, 83.5%, and 88.3% of patients, respectively. Significant correlations were found between the directions of maxillary (r = 0.21, p = 0.032), mandibular (r = 0.25, p = 0.012), and chin deviations (r = 0.19, p = 0.050).
conclusionsThis study highlights that nasal and septal deviations are highly prevalent in patients requiring orthognathic surgery, and their accurate diagnosis is essential for successful orthognathic diagnosis and surgical planning. These findings support the inclusion of nasal assessments in the treatment plans for orthognathic surgery patients.
