1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Objective: The Nasal Obstruction Symptom Evaluation (NOSE) scale is a validated disease-specific patient-reported outcome measure for assessing health-related quality of life in nasal obstruction. This study aimed to translate, culturally adapt, and validate the Vietnamese version of the NOSE questionnaire. Study Design: Prospective cohort study. Setting: Tertiary academic center. Methods: Using a standardized forward-backward translation protocol, the Vietnamese NOSE (VN-NOSE) was developed and psychometrically validated in 143 participants (101 patients with nasal obstruction and 42 healthy controls). Among symptomatic patients, 47 undergoing endoscopic septoplasty with inferior turbinoplasty completed assessments preoperatively and at 1 week, 3 weeks, and 3 months postoperatively. Internal consistency, test-retest reliability, construct validity, discriminant validity, responsiveness, and the minimal clinically important difference (MCID) were evaluated. Correlations with a visual analogue scale (VAS), a 6-point Likert scale, and peak nasal inspiratory flow (PNIF) were analyzed. Results: The VN-NOSE showed excellent internal consistency (Cronbach's Conclusion: The VN-NOSE is a reliable, valid, and responsive instrument for clinical and research use in Vietnamese patients with nasal obstruction, with an MCID of 15 points.
