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
backgroundRevision rhinoplasty presents unique challenges, particularly in achieving structural integrity and aesthetic harmony. This study explores the efficacy of costal grafts in addressing these challenges, focusing on anatomical corrections and patient outcomes. MATERIALS AND
methodsA prospective analysis was conducted on patients undergoing revision rhinoplasty with costal grafts. An algorithmic approach was applied to tailor the surgical technique to individual anatomical needs, documented through pre- and postoperative assessments, including CT imaging and 3D scanning.
resultsA total of 34 patients were included. Significant improvements were noted in nasal structure and function post-surgery. The mean NOSE score improved from 94.47 ± 5.48 preoperatively to 12.59 ± 13.43 postoperatively, and the mean ROE score increased from 18.44 ± 10.02 to 92.65 ± 13.00, indicating substantial enhancement in both nasal airway function and patient satisfaction. The use of costal grafts facilitated effective corrections for a broad spectrum of nasal deformities, with a complication rate of 2.94%.
conclusionsCostal grafts in revision rhinoplasty offer a versatile and effective solution for complex nasal deformities. The algorithmic approach used in this study enhances repeatability and outcomes, suggesting a promising avenue for achieving desired aesthetic and functional results in revision cases. Further research is warranted to optimize techniques and evaluate long-term outcomes. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: II.
