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

Worldwide, the use of soft tissue fillers for aesthetic purposes has significantly increased, as have the number of associated complications. Vision loss is a rare but catastrophic complication of injecting tissue fillers. We formed a UK multidisciplinary steering group in 2024 to develop consensus guidelines for the management of tissue filler-induced vision loss. The multidisciplinary steering group consisted of various specialists with significant expertise in aesthetics, emergency ophthalmology, oculoplastic surgery, and the retina. Consensus statements were formulated by the group. Recommendations focused on immediate emergency measures, access pathways to specialist care, improved consent processes, and increasing awareness of vision-related complications. These guidelines aim to provide pragmatic, evidence-based steps for frontline clinicians to optimize patient outcomes for this rare but devastating complication. Level of Evidence: 5 (Risk).
