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: Horizontal neck lines are an early and conspicuous marker of cutaneous aging. Intradermal hyaluronic acid (HA) injections have become a standard minimally invasive countermeasure, yet comparative data for composite HA solutions in Asian populations remain scarce. Purpose: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of injectable sodium hyaluronate composite solution (NCTF Methods: In this prospective, multicenter, randomized, evaluator-blinded, active-controlled, non-inferiority trial, 188 subjects with moderate-to-severe neck wrinkles were randomly assigned (1:1) to the experimental group or the control group, with both groups receiving three sessions of non-cross-linked injectable sodium hyaluronate composite solution at 4-week intervals. Improvement of Allergan Transverse Neck Lines Scale (ATNLS), subject-assessed Global Aesthetic Improvement Scale (GAIS) and adverse events (AEs) were evaluated and compared before the 3 injection sessions and at 4, 12, and 24 weeks post-final injection. Results: At week 4 post-final injection, the ATNLS response rates were 88.30% in the experimental group and 85.11% in the control group, respectively, with a between-group difference of 3.19% (95% confidence interval (CI): [-0.0723, 0.0987], Conclusion: Injectable sodium hyaluronate composite solution (non-cross-linked) provides safe, effective, and non-inferior correction of moderate-to-severe neck wrinkles compared with active control, expanding minimally invasive therapeutic options for cervical rejuvenation.
