Why Does an "Avatar Nose" Appear After Dermal Filler Injection? Insights From a Cadaveric Study on the Nasofrontal Ligament
Wan J, Hong GW, Wu R, Alvin Lee KW, Wah Chan LK, Chua D, Cartier H, Kim SB and Yi KH
Nonsurgical rhinoplasty (NSR) with dermal fillers has gained popularity because of its immediate and visible results, minimal downtime, and long-lasting effects. However, complications such as filler migration can lead to the development of the "Avatar nose," a condition where the nose appears unnaturally wide and bulbous in the nasion area, disrupting facial harmony. This phenomenon is often exacerbated by the presence of a taut nasofrontal ligament, which tethers the periosteum to the dermal layer and influences nasal contour.

Phenol Dilution With Saline Solution Versus Alcohol in Partial Matricectomy for Onychocryptosis
Espiñeira Sicre J, García Sirvent L, Ruiz Sánchez J, Álvarez Chinchilla P, García Fernández L and Miralles Botella J
Onychocryptosis significantly impacts quality of life. Chemical partial matricectomy with phenol is a common surgical treatment. The use of alcohol as a solvent during this procedure has been controversial. In vitro studies suggest that physiologic saline solution (PSS) may be a more effective solvent for phenol.
Analysis of Research Waste in Phase III/IV Randomized Controlled Trials of Botulinum Toxin Type A
Chen H, Chang SJ, Zheng Y, Zhou Y, Sun B, Hua C and Lin X
The application of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) outcomes of botulinum toxin type A (BoNT-A) to actual patient care faces a significant hurdle due to research waste (RW). This includes the results of RCTs that have not been published even 4 years after completion and those with insufficiently reported outcomes and design flaws. The prevalence of RW within BoNT-A-associated RCTs remains uncertain.
