Techniques for Retaining the Inframammary Fold in Implant-Based Reconstructive Breast Surgery.
Article in European journal of breast health, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Both reconstructive and aesthetic implant-based breast surgery are associated with the risk of damage or destruction of the inframammary fold (IMF). Such surgical complications lead to implant disposition and disruption of the natural shape of the breast. Various techniques are used to restore the IMF or prevent its damage, such as tissue rearrangement, sutures, capsular flaps, the use of biological matrices or synthetic meshes. In this review, all current methods of retaining the IMF and the frequency of complications reported over the past ten years are reviewed.
