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

Very high frequency ultrasound (VHF-US) is new therapy method with a broad application spectrum in dermatology and aesthetic medicine. In this method, ultrasound waves with frequencies over 10 MHz, which were for a long time only used in ultrasound diagnostics, are applied for therapeutic purposes. Such US waves demonstrate specific biophysical efficiencies which warrant their application for the treatment of the skin efflorescences, chronic wounds and hypertrophic scars as well as in anti-aging and skin improvement procedures in aesthetic medicine. VHF-US can be applied not only for stand-alone treatments, but also as a supportive pre- and posttreatment method in combination with laser, radiofrequency currents, injection lipolysis, etc. as well as in aesthetic plastic surgery.
