Computerized Tomography-Based Volumetric Analysis of The Maxillary, Sphenoid, and Frontal Sinuses: An Observational Study.
Observational study in JNMA; journal of the Nepal Medical Association, 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
Introduction: Volumetric analysis of the paranasal sinuses can help evaluate disease extent, treatment, and sinus surgery outcome. This study aims to determine the baseline volumes of frontal, maxillary, and sphenoid sinuses. Methods: An observational cross-sectional study was conducted in a tertiary care center after obtaining ethical approval (Reference number: 264/2021). Computerized Tomography Scan head or Computerized Tomography Scan nose/Paranasal sinus images of patients across all age groups from January to December 2022 were analyzed. Sinus volumes were calculated using Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine software. Results: The study included 154 patients, median age was 29 years (IQR:22.75 - 39.25) and 84 (54.5%) were male. The median volume of the maxillary sinus was 14.30 cm Conclusions: Male population had larger volumes across all types. The maxillary and frontal sinuses had the largest and smallest volumes respectively.
