Tridimensional Genioplasty through T-shaped Osteotomy - A Technical Note.
Article in Annals of maxillofacial surgery. 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
Genioplasty remains a key procedure in facial aesthetic surgery, particularly regarding gender affirmation, due to the significant role of the chin in defining lower facial proportions and sexual dimorphism. While T-shaped osteotomy (TSO) has conventionally been used to narrow the chin in feminisation procedures, its ability to provide three-dimensional (3D) control of bone segments also enables vertical and transverse modifications, including widening when combined with anterior advancement and controlled rotation. The sequential protocol using a 3D plan and customised surgical guide for osteotomy and reposition has not been fully published. This paper aims to report the use of TSO for combined advancement, vertical reduction and proportional transverse remodelling in a male Class II patient undergoing orthognathic surgery. The patient presented with retrusive, narrow and elongated chin morphology associated with Class II skeletal deformity, and underwent orthognathic surgery complemented by TSO genioplasty. Virtual surgical planning and customised surgical guides were manufactured. The technique included controlled bone segment repositioning to achieve both projection and desired contour. TSO provides a versatile and biologically favourable approach for genioplasty in aesthetic facial surgery.
