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
Background: Enhancing neck contour is a primary goal for individuals seeking facial and neck rejuvenation. However, the literature on deep neck sculpture and its potential complications is scarce. Methods: The records of 641 patients with deep plane neck lift and deep tissue sculpture were reviewed retrospectively between 2014 and 2023. The surgical techniques used by the author were addressed comprehensively and supplemented with videos. The outcomes and complications were reported. Results: A total of 1861 consecutive patients underwent deep plane facelift. Of these, 641 patients (34.4%) underwent deep neck surgery, with an average age of 52 years; 14.6% were men, and 29% were smokers. A total of 12.3% experienced complications after deep neck sculpture. The most common complications were subcutaneous serous collection (4.3%), followed by marginal mandibular neuropraxia (3.3%) and hematomas (2.96%). Parotid sialocele was the least frequent complication among enrolled patients (0.3%). Conclusions: Deep neck sculpture presents an effective and safe technique for patients seeking neck rejuvenation.
