Clinical safety and breast symmetry after injectable acellular dermal fibers reconstruction: an MR-based volumetric study.
Article in Gland 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
Background: Injectable acellular dermal fibers (ADFs) have recently emerged as a minimally invasive alternative for volume replacement following breast-conserving surgery (BCS). However, there is limited evidence regarding its long-term efficacy in preserving breast volume and symmetry. This study aimed to evaluate postoperative breast volume and symmetry through magnetic resonance (MR)-based three-dimensional (3D) volumetric analysis in patients who underwent BCS with injectable ADFs. Methods: This retrospective study included 25 patients who underwent BCS with defect filling using a paste-type injectable ADFs. Clinical data and postoperative events were reviewed. Seven patients with both preoperative and 12-month postoperative breast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data were included in volumetric analysis to objectively assess changes in breast volume and symmetry. Results: Postoperative complications were rare, with only one case (4.0%) of seroma requiring a single aspiration. Postoperative breast volume differences (Δ) ranged from 22.1 to 320.2 cm Conclusions: Injectable ADFs may effectively maintain long-term breast symmetry after BCS, even when the postoperative volume is reduced. These findings suggest that injectable ADFs is an available option for volume replacement, particularly for maintaining cosmetic outcomes following BCS.
