1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Osseous genioplasty (OG) and implant-based chin augmentation are 2 primary approaches for correcting microgenia. A comprehensive synthesis comparing their outcomes, safety profiles, and patient satisfaction is lacking. In this study, the authors aim to assess the safety and outcome profile of implant-based chin augmentation and OG. A systematic review was conducted following Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines. A comprehensive search of PubMed, MEDLINE, Cochrane CENTRAL, and Google Scholar was performed in November 2024, utilizing keywords related to genioplasty, chin implants, and specific implant materials. Inclusion criteria required studies to provide original data on isolated procedures performed at a single institution, ensuring consistency in perioperative management. The authors included 7 single-center studies involving 1126 patients with microgenia (740 underwent OG; 386 received implants). Follow-up durations ranged from 6 months to 6 years. Implant materials included Level of Evidence 3 Therapeutic:
