Injection Adipocytolysis for Body and Jawline Contouring: Real-World Experience and Treatment Considerations.
Observational study in Aesthetic surgery journal, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundThe role of ATX-101 in submental fat reduction has been well documented; however, its applicability across multiple anatomic areas is to be explored.
objectivesThe authors sought to describe the experience with ATX-101 subcutaneous injections for body and jawline contouring and evaluate its safety.
methodsThis single-arm, single-center observational study included 201 patients who underwent injection adipocytolysis with ATX-101 (area-adjusted dose of 2 mg/cm2) in the jowl, abdomen (upper/lower), thigh (inner/outer/banana roll), arm, anterior periaxillary fat, back (lower/upper/nape/lipoma), knee (anterior/medial), chest, and/or neck. The number of treatment sessions, treatment volumes, doses, injections required for each anatomic area, and associated adverse events were recorded.
resultsThe mean number of treatment sessions conducted was 1.8. Multiple sessions were common for the jowl (mean: 2.0 and mean volume administered varied significantly between persons receiving 1 or multiple sessions [P = 0.005]). The mean volume and mean number of injections per session were highest in the chest (84.7 mL and 423.5, respectively) and lowest in the jowl (0.8 mL and 4.6, respectively). The chest (0.2 mL) and nape (0.2 mL) received the highest mean ATX-101 dose per injection site per session, whereas the inner thigh (0.11 mL) and upper back (0.11 mL) received the least. Adverse events observed were localized to the injection site. All patients experienced edema after each session, whereas numbness, tenderness, bruising, and paresis were experienced by 99.6%, 94.2%, 33.1%, and 2.6% of patients, respectively. Alopecia was not observed.
conclusionsATX-101 was well tolerated for body and jawline contouring. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: 4:
