Complication Rates after Breast Surgery with the Motiva Smooth Silk Surface Silicone Gel Implants-A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers.
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
backgroundIn an era where textured devices are being phased out due to concerns about BIA-ALCL, the Motiva SilkSurface breast implants intend to alleviate historical prosthesis-related complications. However, its safety and feasibility remain unelucidated.
methodsAn analysis of Pubmed, Web of Science, Ovid, and Embase databases was performed. A total of 114 studies were identified initially, and 13 of these met the inclusion criteria and were assessed regarding postoperative parameters such as complication rate or follow-up period.
resultsIn 4784 patients who underwent breast augmentation with Motiva SilkSurface breast implants, a total of 250 (5.2%) complications were observed. Short- and medium-term complication rates ranged from 2.8-14.4% and 0.32-16.67%, respectively. The most common complication was early seroma ( DISCUSSION: Although the majority of the studies in the current literature suggest the distinction of the Motiva SilkSurface breast implants in terms of postoperative complications and capsular contracture, its safety and feasibility need to be further elucidated with well-designed, large-scale, multicenter, prospective case-control studies. Other: No funding was received.
