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
The plethora of facelift techniques described in literature suggests that no single method addresses all age-related changes in facial anatomy. To reduce the limitations of a single approach, a multimodal technique is recommended. Craniofacial suspension and superficial musculoaponeurotic system plication using a diffuse total superficial musculoaponeurotic system (SMAS) weave is an effective and satisfactory method of dealing with the superficial musculoaponeurotic system. It utilizes a continuous barbed polydioxanone suture that is woven throughout the lower superficial musculoaponeurotic system. This technique preserves facial volume while achieving the symmetrical tightening of the superficial musculoaponeurotic system. In this article, the authors describe over 10 years of experience of applying this procedure with success to different patients, including elderly ones and those with a previous facelift history. It can be integrated into the classic minimal access cranial suspension (MACS) lift or used with more extensive facelifts. It is a safe, easy, and powerful tool that should have a wide application in facial rejuvenation procedures.
