ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
This study aimed to conduct a bibliometric analysis of trends in the description items within the literature published from 2019 to 2021 with "maxillary sinus septum" in the title or subtitle.METHODS:
Electronic data from PubMed (MEDLINE), Google Scholar, and ScienceDirect were searched from 2019 to 2021. We used the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) to select 21 of 243 articles and examined their studies. Statistical calculations from data recorded by the authors were performed using the Chi-square, Mann-Whitney, and independent tests. Significance was set at P < 0.05.RESULTS:
The number of articles decreased annually. The highest number of publications was from Asia (64.3%), accounting for 71.4% of publications. The features of the septum were described for eight items, with one septum (70.14%) mentioned significantly more frequently, followed by on one side (65.89%) or the right side (62.22%). Location was mentioned significantly more frequently in the middle (55.22%) and for those aged 45 years and older (50.38%). No significant differences were observed in prevalence, age, height, or width between sexes; the patients' ages ranged from 18 to 90 years. Septa were significantly more prevalent in dentulous (45.38%) and partially edentulous (48.58%) patients, with significantly more patients exhibiting buccopalatal orientation (82.39%).CONCLUSIONS:
This study focused primarily on anatomical features using CBCT examination, and analyses of male-female differences and the origin of the sinus septum are necessary for the future.Palavras-chave
