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

Introduction: Rhinoplasty is one of the most frequently requested aesthetic procedures. However, a subset of patients presents with complex psychological profiles that can adversely impact surgical outcomes. Early psychological assessment is crucial to optimizing patient safety and satisfaction. Objectives and Hypotheses: This narrative review aims to explore the role of integrated psychological assessment within multidisciplinary facial plastic surgery services. It hypothesizes that early psychological input improves patient selection, manages expectations, and reduces revision rates. Study Design: Narrative review. Methods: We conducted a structured narrative review of PubMed/MEDLINE, PsycINFO, Embase, and Scopus (from inception to June 2025), supplemented by clinical experience from a high-volume United Kingdom rhinoplasty center. Search terms included rhinoplasty, psychology, BDD, screening, and multidisciplinary care. Eligible sources comprised peer-reviewed studies, reviews, and guidelines on psychological assessment or outcomes in aesthetic rhinoplasty. Results: Integrated psychological assessment can identify patients at risk of dissatisfaction, enhance patient selection, reduce revision surgeries, and improve overall outcomes. Conclusion: Multidisciplinary collaboration between surgeons and psychologists improves rhinoplasty outcomes, enhances patient safety, and supports the ethical principle of nonmaleficence.
