Acute Pulmonary Complications Following Cosmetic Hyaluronic Acid Dermal Filler Injections.
Article in Respirology case reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Hyaluronic acid (HA) injectable dermal filler is widely used in cosmetic procedures, but it rarely leads to pulmonary complications. We present four patients with acute pulmonary complications after HA filler injections: three with organising pneumonia and one with acute pneumonitis. All presented with dyspnoea and cough; three received bilateral breast injections, and one received both breast and buttock injections. All patients received supportive management, including oxygen therapy, corticosteroids, and empirical antibiotics, whereby three responded well, but one succumbed. Clinicians ought to be vigilant of potential life-threatening pulmonary complications related to HA filler injections, as most procedures are performed in unassuming healthcare settings where catastrophic complications are not anticipated.
