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

Background: Although hyaluronic acid-based dermal fillers are widely used, real-world effectiveness and safety data remain limited. Objectives: To confirm the effectiveness and safety of Belotero Intense and Belotero Intense Lidocaine (cohesive polydensified matrix hyaluronic acid fillers) in a real-world setting. Methods: In this multicenter, randomized, rater-blind, uncontrolled, post-market clinical study, 98 participants from 7 sites were randomized 1:1 to Belotero Intense ( Results: The responder rate was 85.5% for nasolabial folds (95% confidence interval [CI] 78.4, 92.6; Conclusions: Under real-world conditions, this study demonstrated that Belotero Intense and Belotero Intense Lidocaine were effective and well tolerated in the correction of nasolabial folds, marionette lines and lip volume.
