Management of Sunken Cheeks With Magnet-Retained Cheek Plumpers.
Article in Cureus, 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
The loss of teeth, associated with sunken lips and cheeks, has a debilitating psychological effect on a person. It is essential for clinicians to incorporate facial esthetics into their treatment plan for complete denture patients in order to improve the patients' confidence and quality of life. Cheek plumpers ensure adequate support to facial muscles, which, in turn, minimizes the appearance of wrinkles, lines, and sagging over time. This case report describes the fabrication of detachable cheek plumpers using magnets to enhance the facial esthetics of a completely edentulous patient. Magnet-retained cheek plumpers, being small and lightweight, allow ease of placement and cleaning without the addition of weight to the prosthesis.
