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

backgroundEyebrow lift surgery addresses periorbital aging in Asian women, yet achieving durable eyebrow stability and adequate projection remains challenging. Leveraging recent anatomical insights into the muscular-multilayered deep fascial system, we developed an enhanced deep-plane eyebrow lift technique and evaluated its safety and efficacy.

methodsA retrospective review of demographic data, surgical complications, and satisfaction rates was conducted for consecutive patients who underwent this modified eyebrow lift, in which the deep fascial system served as anchoring points for suspending periorbital soft tissue. Outcomes were evaluated through surgeon- and patient-reported satisfaction scores (categorized as poor, fair, satisfactory, or totally satisfactory) and by comparing preoperative and postoperative measurements of upper eyelid and eyebrow height.

resultsThirty-seven patients (aged 32-73 years) were included. Mean satisfaction scores were 3.87 ± 0.41 (surgeon) and 3.71 ± 0.60 (patient). Upper eyelid height increased significantly from 4.54±0.58 mm to 5.39±0.47 mm (p < 0.001) at medial limbus point, from 4.87±0.61 mm to 6.21±0.59 mm (p < 0.001) at mid-pupil point, from 3.62±0.73 mm to 5.68±0.75 mm (p < 0.001) at lateral canthus point. Eyebrow height also improved, though not statistically significantly. No surgical complications were observed during a mean follow-up of 12.0 months.

conclusionBased on recent anatomy findings regarding muscular-multilayered deep fascial system, this study explored surgical strategies for favorable and sustained periorbital rejuvenation in Asian women, with high satisfaction and no major complications.
