Ultrasound of the Cheek: Examination Technique, Anatomy, and Abnormal Findings.
Review in Journal of ultrasound in medicine : official journal of the American Institute of Ultrasound in Medicine, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
The cheek is a complex anatomical area, with several multifaceted implications, dealing with otorhinolaryngology, dentistry, dermatology, esthetic medicine, and surgery. In this review we first illustrate the appropriate ultrasound examination technique, providing some specific tips. Then we describe the ultrasound anatomy of the cheek. Subsequently we provide a systematic clinical and sonographic approach to the issue of cheek bump. Then we mention the key abnormalities of the cheek, including inflammatory processes, vascular abnormalities, cysts, tumors, esthetics, and miscellaneous abnormalities. Finally we emphasize the role of ultrasound guidance for diagnostic and therapeutic percutaneous procedures.
