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

purposeOver the last decade, injectable soft tissue fillers have become an essential part of facial plastic surgery practice. We report here a tragic complication of hyaluronic acid filler injection in a young healthy woman, management offered, and the outcome. OBSERVATIONS: A 32-year-old woman developed unilateral acute blindness, orbital pain, total ophthalmoplegia, and anterior and posterior segment ischemia immediately following hyaluronic acid injection. Urgent measures were taken including hyaluronidase enzyme injection, vigorous messaging, and systemic steroids. Eight weeks later, the extraocular motility has fully recovered; however, the consequences of ischemia on the anterior and posterior ocular segments persisted. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPORTANCE: Describing a major refractory complication following injecting hyaluronic acid dermal filler. Prompt intervention including the use retro or peribulbar injection of hyaluronidase has a little impact when it comes to reversing ocular sequalae. Therefore, injectors should be aware of facial danger zones that could potentially lead to this devastating outcome.
