Five-point liquid rhinoplasty: Results from a retrospective analysis of a novel standardized technique and considerations on safety.

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
backgroundNonsurgical aesthetic improvement of the nose with hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers is becoming increasingly popular but comes with important safety considerations.
aimsTo assess the safety and effectiveness of the standardized "five-point liquid rhinoplasty" approach.
methodsThis was a retrospective, single-center analysis of consecutive adult patients undergoing nonsurgical aesthetic treatment of the nose. All had one of the three main indications (insufficient nasal projection, nasal hump, or deep glabella) and were injected using HA fillers with high elastic modulus. Treatments were given using some or all of the injection points of the "five-point liquid rhinoplasty" technique: P1 (nasal tip, 0.2-0.3 ml supracartilaginous); P2 (nasal root, 0.1-0.2 ml supraperiostal); P3 (cartilaginous dorsum, 0.1-0.2 ml supracartilaginous/supraperiostal); P4 (subnasal, 0.1-0.2 ml supraperiostal); and P5 (nasal alar, 0.1-0.2 ml per side supraperiostal). The risk of complications was minimized by injecting deep and staying in the midline as far as possible.
resultsTwenty patients were enrolled (n = 15 female [75%]; mean age: 37.8 ± 11.7 years). The mean volume of filler used was 0.66 ± 0.35 ml per patient. Nineteen subjects (95%) said they were "very satisfied" with results, and the physician was also "very satisfied" with outcomes in 19 patients (95%). Two individuals experienced hematoma, which was managed conservatively; there were no other significant complications.
conclusionsThe "five-point liquid rhinoplasty" is a simple and effective method designed to maximize safety. It offers a good alternative to surgery in selected patients.
