The sneeze reflex in physiological and pathological states: a mini review.
Review in Frontiers in neuroscience, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
The sneeze reflex serves as a protective response of the human body to environmental stimuli, with its regulatory mechanism largely depending on a complex nervous system. Current research indicates that the sneeze reflex can be triggered by both internal and external stimuli, including light and temperature. The composition of its reflex arc involves the coordinated action of multiple neural structures. Recent in-depth studies on the mechanism of the sneeze reflex have revealed a growing association between this reflex and various diseases, such as allergic rhinitis and infectious diseases. However, existing research primarily focuses on elucidating the neurophysiological basis of the sneeze reflex and its related neural pathways. The manifestations and mechanisms of the sneeze reflex under different pathological states remain underexplored, thereby limiting the potential application of the sneeze reflex in clinical diagnosis and treatment. This review aims to discuss the physiological mechanisms and pathological manifestations associated with the sneeze reflex.
