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

Excess suprapubic adiposity can have negative consequences for patients, including concerns related to physical comfort, sexual function, hygiene, and esthetics. Historically, treatment options for pubic contouring have been limited to surgical methods. The purpose of this article is to review the literature investigating the use of minimally invasive fat reduction treatments for suprapubic adiposity including cryolipolysis, injection lipolysis, radiofrequency, and ultrasound. A thorough search of the PubMed database was conducted to search for studies evaluating the use of cryolipolysis, injection lipolysis, radiofrequency, and ultrasound for suprapubic adiposity. The literature search did not yield any publications that evaluated the use of cryolipolysis, injection lipolysis, radiofrequency, or ultrasound for treatment of suprapubic adiposity. Minimally invasive treatments for fat reduction, including cryolipolysis, injection lipolysis, radiofrequency, and ultrasound, have clinically demonstrated safety and efficacy in various anatomic locations. However, clinical studies evaluating these procedures for suprapubic adiposity are noticeably absent. These options may confer benefits such as decreased recovery time, risk, and cost to patients. Future clinical studies evaluating these potential treatment modalities for suprapubic fat reduction are warranted.
