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

objectiveTo investigate the changes and symmetry of facial soft tissue during posed smile, to analyze the feature of posed smile in different gender, and verify the reproducibility of posed smile.

methodsThree-dimensional (3D) facial images of 41 adults (16 males and 25 females with an average age of 26.76±2.70 years) which were taken by FaceScan three-dimensional sensor, including one rest position and two posed smile images. Then these images were imported into 3D soft tissue analysis software for model repositioning. 3D morphable model method (3DMM) was carried out to automatic landmarks setting. After that, the measurement of the eyes, cheeks, nose and perioral area were carried out for 3D soft tissue analysis. Finally, the changes and symmetry of the soft tissues between the two expression states and the gender differences during the posed smiles were compared. Meanwhile, the reproducibility of posed smile was statistically tested.

resultsCompared with the rest position, except for nasolabial angle (1.45°±7.65°), the measurements of 3D soft tissue in other region were changed in posed smile (

conclusionIn this study, during the posed smile the soft tissues of the eyes, cheeks, nose, lips and chin changed in different degrees, and the asymmetry of cheilion and alar curvature point was greater than that of the rest position; In addition, the reproducibility of posed smile was excellent, which can be a reference for clinical aesthetics and functional research of smile.
