The ABC of BBA: A Personal Perspective of a 10 Point Plan.
Article in Aesthetic plastic surgery, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
The aim of bilateral breast augmentation (BBA) is not just to enlarge the breast, but to create an aesthetically pleasing enlarged breast. This is an elective surgical procedure, often performed on young healthy women-yet the incidence of revision is in the region of 20%. There is a wide variation in what these patients want cosmetically. A "10 point" plan is presented which should be considered in every patient undergoing BBA. Each point addresses a critical issue in BBA. Understanding the mechanics of the procedure is as important as knowing the technical details of the operation. There is no simple "one operation for all" approach in breast augmentation, but the hybrid augmentation represents an advance in this procedure. The incidence of revision surgery should be lowered when a careful, "thought out" approach is adopted.Level of Evidence V This journal requires that authors assign a level of evidence to each article.
