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

Materials of different allogeneic or xenogeneic or autologous origins are widely used as soft-tissue fillers or structural scaffolds in the field of cosmetic surgery, while complications including prosthesis infection, donor site deformity and filler embolization have always been difficult problems for plastic surgeons. The application of novel biomaterials may bring in hopeful solutions for these problems. Recently, some advanced biomaterials, such as regenerative biomaterials can effectively promote the repair of defective tissues, which have been proven to have good therapeutic as well as cosmetic effects in cosmetic surgery. Therefore, biomaterials with active compounds have drawn significant attention for the tissue regeneration of reconstructive and esthetic treatment. Some of these applications have achieved better clinical outcomes than traditional biological materials. This review summarized recent progress and clinical applications of advanced biomaterials in cosmetic surgery.
