Microstructural topography of the inferior temporal septum and its clinical implications.
Article in Surgical and radiologic anatomy : SRA, 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
purposeThe inferior temporal septum (ITS) is a fibrous adhesion between the superficial temporal fascia and the superficial layer of the deep temporal fascia. This study comprehensively visualized the three-dimensional (3D) topography of the ITS to provide clinically significant anatomical insights for temporal interventions.
methodsTen temporal specimens were divided into three regions from the anterior direction to the posterior direction to investigate microstructural variations of the ITS according to its location in a histological analysis. Another ten temporal specimens were subjected to a multidirectional analysis of the temporal fasciae using a 3D volume rendering technique.
resultsThe ITS, which continued from the temporal ligamentous adhesion, was composed of thick and short fibrous septa between two temporal fasciae in the anterior temporal region. In the midtemporal region, the fibrous septa of the ITS were relatively thin and long, with abundant adipose tissue. The ITS fibers in the posterior temporal region did not fuse the two temporal fasciae, instead following a course parallel to them.
conclusionThis study has revealed microstructural variations of the ITS that depend on its location in the temporal region. The findings of the present study should be considered when performing face-lifting procedures involving the layer under the superficial musculoaponeurotic system, in order to minimize complications such as fascial and neurovascular injuries.
