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

objectiveRejuvenation of the neck and jawline is an increasing concern for patients seeing dermatologists and aesthetic providers. This review aims to provide a comprehensive narrative review of evidence on nonsurgical neck and jawline rejuvenation techniques.

methodsMultiple databases (Ovid MEDLINE, Embase, and Web of Science) were queried with the assistance of 2 health science librarians. Searches were based on a combination of keyword terms related to nonsurgical modalities of neck and jawline rejuvenation.

resultsOur search identified 1,225 studies, with 451 relevant to review. Injectable options include deoxycholic acid for fat reduction; neuromodulators to smooth dynamic wrinkles, sharpen the jawline, and reduce lower face volume; fillers to address volume loss, enhance contours, and improve skin quality; and thread lifts to improve skin elasticity. Energy-based options include ablative and nonablative lasers, helium plasma devices, plasma exeresis, radiofrequency (RF), cryolipolysis, and ultrasound to address skin laxity and submental fullness and to promote collagen production. Mechanical stimulation options include microneedling, RF microneedling, and microcoring to stimulate elastin synthesis. Office-based liposuction is also an effective modality for submental fullness. LIMITATIONS: As a hybrid narrative review, this study is limited by the lack of formal quality assessment of individual studies but strengthened by systematic inclusion criteria.

conclusionImproved cosmetic outcomes with overall low rates of complications have been reported with neck and jawline rejuvenation therapies discussed in this review. Appropriate patient selection and managing expectations are paramount when considering treatment plans.
