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

Background: The anatomy of the eyelid changes with age. Multiple changes were observed in the eyelids and the surrounding structures including the malar region. Aging affects the appearance of eyelids and midface by the formation of tear trough deformity and malar flattening and ptosis. To define the effect of malar fat suspension on the lateral part of the infraorbital wall and orbital fat transposition in tear-trough and malar flattening and ptosis. Methods: A retrospective study was carried out on 15 patients who had surgeries between January 2020 and January 2022. This technique combines orbital fat transposition to the medial side of the infraorbital wall and malar fat suspension to the lateral side of the infraorbital wall. The average follow-up period was 12 months. Values were compared by paired samples student or Wilcoxon signed rank test for quantitative and qualitative data respectively. Results: There was a significant improvement in tear trough deformity, malar ptosis, and midface lift ( Conclusion: The transcutaneous lower blepharoplasty with orbital fat transposition and malar fat suspension to the lateral part of the infraorbital wall can be considered a safe and effective intervention with improved aesthetic outcome. Thus, it is recommended in patients with tear trough deformity and malar ptosis.
