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

backgroundThe increased demand for non-surgical rhinoplasty using hyaluronic acid (HA) has given impetus to explore more injection techniques and has also placed a higher demand on the coping of complications.

objectivesThe purpose of this systematic review is to provide clinicians with recommendations by broadly consolidating data on HA injections for rhinoplasty injection techniques and complications, and presenting the advantages and disadvantages of each technique and the treatment of complications.

methodsA systematic electronic literature search using keywords and MESH search terms over the PubMed/Medline, Cochrane Central, Embase, Web of Science, and CNKI online databases was conducted from 2000 to 2024. Risk of bias assessment was performed for all included articles.

resultsThere were 37 papers with a total of 7339 patients included in the study. Four different injection regimens were summarized. The incidence of serious complications such as blindness, skin necrosis, and cerebral infarction was only 3‰. Mild complications including bruising, hematoma, edema, and asymmetry had a higher incidence of 13.34%.

conclusionExisting techniques for hyaluronic acid nasal injections can be summarized as top-to-bottom approach, bottom-up approach, critical site injections, and multi-plane injections, with the latter two more innovative injections reporting higher complication rates in comparison. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE I: This journal requires that authors assign a level of evidence to each article.
