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

Facial retaining ligaments maintain soft-tissue position and support the lower face, but whether fractional subnanosecond Nd:YAG laser treatment can improve the matrix architecture of ultraviolet (UV)-aged ligament tissue remains unclear. We evaluated whether laser-associated matrix alteration was accompanied by coordinated changes in LATS1-YAP-IQGAP1-NFAT1 signaling and collagen type I-dominant remodeling. Male Sprague-Dawley rats were allocated to non-UV control, UV-aged, and UV-aged plus laser groups (
