The SibUS-In Finger Probe: An Alternative Device and Method for Ultrasound-Guided Injections.
Article in Aesthetic surgery journal. Open forum, 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
Conventional ultrasound systems in aesthetic medicine are often bulky, single-hand operated, and poorly adapted to facial anatomy, limiting their practicality during injectable procedures. These ergonomic and workflow constraints have restricted the integration of ultrasound guidance into routine practice. The SibUS-In (safe injection by ultrasound) probe was specifically designed for aesthetic injections, integrating a high-frequency transducer onto the injector's fingertip to enable simultaneous palpation, scanning, and injection. This configuration restores 2-hand coordination and allows real-time visualization of facial structures while maintaining dexterity. In clinical use, the device combines ergonomic comfort, intuitive handling, and high-quality imaging that supports continuous vascular mapping and procedural control. The present article illustrates the practical application of the SibUS-In probe across different facial regions and procedural stages, highlighting its potential to facilitate ultrasound-guided injections. Further studies are warranted to evaluate quantitative outcomes and define standardized protocols for its broader clinical adoption.
