Ultrasonography in the management of lip complications caused by hyaluronic acid.
Article in Imaging science in dentistry, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Ultrasonography is highly accurate for evaluating soft tissues. Given that minimally invasive aesthetic procedures are on the rise, complications have become more prevalent. Thus, ultrasonography holds promise for assisting in the diagnosis and management of complications arising from these interventions. This report highlights the importance of ultrasonography in the treatment of complications caused by hyaluronic acid injection. A patient visited a dental office 24 hours after hyaluronic acid application, presenting pain and bruising in the middle and inferior thirds of the face on the right side. To evaluate blood vessels, the surgeon used Doppler-mode ultrasonography, which enabled the precise application of hyaluronidase to reestablish blood perfusion and preserve adjacent structures. Therefore, to avoid severe outcomes, such as necrosis or even amaurosis, the use of ultrasonography is suggested, improving the precision and safety of these procedures.
