These were screened on the Covidence platform for inclusion if any intervention was reported for the treatment of ENS. A pooled analysis of standardized mean differences (SMDs) combined with a random effects model was employed to report outcomes in Empty Nose 6\u2010Item Questionnaire (ENS6Q), Sino\u2010Nasal Outcome Test (SNOT), anxiety, and depression scores.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A total of 35 articles were included, comprising 957 individual ENS patients. Surgical interventions mostly in the form of meatus augmentation implants accounted for 26 out of the 36 articles. The remaining ten articles included medical and psychological management options. SMD in SNOT, ENS6Q, anxiety, and depression scores were reported and demonstrated statistically significant improvements in follow\u2010up periods of up to 1 year.
