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 surgeon's aesthetic analysis of the nose is based on scientific measures of its proportions and dimensions. Because the primary aim of rhinoplasty is targeted at the patient's satisfaction with self-image, patients' perception and satisfaction are of paramount importance. The aim of this study was to evaluate surgeon versus patient nasal aesthetic analysis. Method: A cross-sectional study was conducted on 57 primary rhinoplasty consultations during the period June and September 2017 at the Plastic Surgery Clinic in King Fahad Hospital-Hofuf. The surgeon and the patients were handed identical questionnaires before the consultations. The questionnaire has 27 components regarding the nasal appearance. Results: The surgeon's and the patients' perceptions regarding reliability was assessed by Cohen's Kappa and Pearson's correlation coefficient. There was moderate agreement with the overall appearance of the nose (κ = 0.2-0.39). The most agreed-upon components were "dorsal hump" (κ = 0.6, Conclusions: The surgeon and patients have a minimum agreement regarding the view of nasal appearance, mostly with the suitability of the front part and the columella. The parts of the nose agreed upon the most were "dorsal hump" and "tip drops down". Exploring the differences between patient and surgeon aesthetic analysis of the nose will aid in addressing the discrepancies and improving surgical outcome and satisfaction.
