1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Backgrounds: Beauty standards vary across cultures and regions. To date, no research has identified ideal nasal profiles for Thai individuals. This study aims to determine the preferred nasal aesthetics among the Thai population. Methods: This cross-sectional study employed an online self-assessment questionnaire to investigate the ideal nasal profiles among Thai adults aged 18-60. Data were collected from participants across all regions of Thailand and included demographic information, rhinoplasty intentions, and perceptions of ideal nasal features. Results: Of the 1452 respondents, 35.74% (519 individuals) have either undergone or plan to undergo rhinoplasty, while the remaining 64.26% (933 individuals) expressed either no interest or uncertainty about the procedure. The ideal nasolabial angle was found to be between 97 and 108 degrees for males and 88 to 98 degrees for females, respectively. Male participants in the rhinoplasty and control groups exhibited statistically significant differences in nasolabial angle ( Conclusions: Our study identified distinct ideal nasal profiles among the Thai general population and those considering rhinoplasty. Our findings differed from the neoclassical orbitonasal proportion (canon V). These findings offer insights into contemporary Thai beauty standards for the nose, which can inform clinical decision-making in nasal treatment.
