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

backgroundSkin ageing is a physiological process, progressive and irreversible. Hyaluronic acid injection treatments are used to correct the signs of skin ageing. MATERIAL AND

methodsHyaluronic acid was implanted in the area of the cheek and the forehead aesthetic units in 57 women, aged 35-55 years. Apart from the clinical observation, self-assessment of the therapeutic results was conducted. The "My skin" questionnaire was used for subjective evaluation of the treatment results.

resultsMean wrinkle score in the pre-menopausal group changed after the treatment, from 3.2±0.6 to 1.1±0.3 and from 3.2±0.6 to 0.8±0.6 for the forehead and the cheek esthetic units, respectively. In the post-menopausal group, the score decreased from 3.8±0.4 to 1.7± 0.7 and from 3.2±0.617 to 0.8± 0.6 for the forehead and the cheek esthetic units, respectively. The changes were age-dependent. Improved appearance of the facial skin - higher satisfaction with skin tone and scent - was reported after hyaluronic acid injections. Higher subjective perception of improvement corresponded to older age, irrespectively of the menopausal status. Correlations between age and the effect of the treatment on maintaining proper skin hydration as well as between improved appearance of the forehead area and feelings of autonomy and well-being were found.

conclusionHyaluronic acid injections significantly improved the subjective perception and overall assessment of the scent and appearance of the facial skin.
