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 zygomatico-temporal region holds both reconstructive and aesthetic importance, particularly in periorbital surgery and facial rejuvenation. The zygomatico-orbital artery (ZOA) appears to be the main vascular structure in this region; however, anatomical studies remain limited and sometimes contradictory. The aim of this study was to provide additional information on the descriptive anatomy of the ZOA, its perforators, its anastomoses and its angiosome.
methods20 hemifacial specimens were dissected to describe the anatomy of the zygomatico-orbital artery, its perforators, its anastomoses with the regional arterial network. 21 hemifacial specimens were dissected to measure the surface area of the ZOA angiosome.
resultsZOA is found in over 90% of cases injected with latex. The ZOA had an oblique course, averaging 15 mm above the zygomatic arch. The mean number of perforators was 4.6. Mean perforating site was 22.5 ± 6.0 mm posterior to the lateral border of the orbit and 16.4 ± 6.2 mm above the upper border of the zygomatic arch. The mean skin surface area of the angiosome was 31.8 ± 6.7 cm
conclusionA detailed anatomical understanding of the ZOA, the main artery in the region described in our study, helps to guide the choice of flaps from the zygomatico-temporal region, and provides additional information to ensure the safety of filler injection procedures in this area.
