Expert Consensus on Hyaluronic Acid Filler Facial Injection for Chinese Patients.
Article in Plastic and reconstructive surgery. Global open, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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.
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
backgroundBeauty standards vary by race and region, which must be accounted for in creating beauty. Chinese have unique features, including a depressed nose, flat midface, and small chin, and have different cosmetic concerns. We performed a consensus study on filler injections based on the Chinese standard of beauty due to a lack of such study.
methodsWe organized the YVOIRE Consensus Group, including 5 plastic surgeons. We discussed common problematic areas seen in Chinese and described techniques based on our experience with hyaluronic acid fillers, while considering peer-reviewed articles, followed by multiple consensus-developing sessions.
resultsChinese faces are characterized by retruded forehead, chin, and low nasal bridge, with certain features believed to bring good fortune. Therefore, profiles of the forehead, nose, lip, and chin have substantial effects on attractiveness. The demand for cosmetic procedures is high among the young generation who particularly desire nose and chin augmentation. Attractive Chinese facial shapes are characterized by a long, slender facial shape and pointed chin. Lips are narrow and thick. When injecting fillers for Chinese, it is necessary to apply special methods that produce results consistent with these characteristics.
conclusionsUnderstanding the concept and demand of beauty depending on race and region is important. Patients should be evaluated before aesthetic procedures. Maintaining hygiene during the procedure is crucial. Moreover, methods for preventing pain are essential. Fillers should be injected into the correct anatomical site and layer to minimize side effects and maximize effectiveness.
