Sonoanatomy of the Nasal Ala for Botulinum Neurotoxin Injection.
Article in Journal of cosmetic dermatology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundThe nasal ala region significantly affects facial aesthetics and function. Botulinum toxin injections may enhance nasal appearance, but their precise impact on underlying muscles remains unexplored. Understanding the muscular anatomy and behavior in this area is crucial for optimizing toxin application and achieving desired outcomes.
objectiveThis study aimed to ultrasonographically assess and characterize the muscular architecture of the nasal ala region in 32 participants, with the primary objective of delineating the specific muscles involved in nasal aesthetics. METHODS AND MATERIALS: This cross-sectional study included 32 participants (15 females and 17 males, aged 20-65) with no history of nasal surgery or botulinum toxin injections in the nasal region. Ultrasonographic evaluation was performed to assess the superficial and deep muscular layers in the nasal ala region, using ultrasonography to visualize the targeted muscles and measure their depth.
resultsUltrasonographic analysis revealed distinct muscular structures in the nasal ala region among participants. Simultaneous movements of the associated muscles were observed, exhibiting diverse depths.
conclusionUltrasonographic evaluation in our study population elucidated the anatomical nuances of the underlying muscles involved in nasal anatomy. These findings establish a foundation for a more targeted and precise approach in administering botulinum toxin injections, potentially optimizing nasal aesthetics outcomes.
