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

Masseter hypertrophy is an uncommon condition, characterized by an increase in the volume of the masseter region, with the patient presenting functional and aesthetic complaints. Several therapeutic modalities have been suggested for this condition, however, a surgical approach usually presents consistent results in more complex cases. The objective of this article is to report a clinical case of masseter hypertrophy associated with class IV of Kin, treated through partial removal of the masseter muscle, bichectomy and genioplasty. Surgery was performed under general anesthesia in a hospital setting. The planning was previously carried out through prototyped models and radiographs to remove the excess bone shown in the mandibular angle region. Surgical treatment of masseter hypertrophy is effective and long-lasting in severe cases. Additional surgical procedures must be performed in order to provide the best possible result according to the facial deformity found.
