Autoimmune/Inflammatory Syndrome Induced by Adjuvants (ASIA) in a 56-Year-Old Patient With Silicone Breast Implants: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 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
Autoimmune/inflammatory syndrome induced by adjuvants (ASIA) is a clinically complex condition triggered in genetically predisposed individuals by substances such as silicone in breast implants. Although silicone implants have traditionally been considered inert, increasing evidence links them to autoimmune phenomena. This report presents a 56-year-old woman who experienced progressive muscle weakness, hand and facial edema, alopecia, and elevated creatine kinase levels one year after silicone implant exchange. A diagnosis of ASIA, complicated by Grade IV capsular contracture, was established based on clinical, serological, and dermatological findings. Despite initial immunosuppressive therapy, symptoms persisted, prompting explantation and mastopexy. This case underscores the value of a multidisciplinary approach and highlights explantation as a potential strategy for improving ASIA-related outcomes.
