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

backgroundFat grafting is widely used in reconstructive and aesthetic surgery due to its autologous nature and biocompatibility; however, resorption rates of 40-50% remain a limitation. Adipocyte survival depends on harvesting, processing, and injection techniques. This study aimed to evaluate whether liposuction cannula diameter and fenestration area influence macroscopic and histologic characteristics of harvested adipose tissue. MATERIALS AND

methodsA double-blind, non-randomized, split-body study was conducted. The abdomen was divided into four quadrants. Four cannula configurations were evaluated according to diameter (3 mm vs 5 mm) and fenestration area (1 mm

resultsForty samples were analyzed. Cannula B produced the largest adipose tissue particle area (median 9.54 mm

conclusionFenestration area influences adipocyte integrity. Smaller fenestrations (1 mm LEVEL OF EVIDENCE II: This journal requires that authors assign a level of evidence to each article.
