Orbital inflammation.
Review in Current neurology and neuroscience reports, 2003. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Orbital inflammation is a common problem in adults and children, accounting for the majority of all orbital processes. The presentation may be acute, subacute, or insidious. When the onset is acute, the process can be mistaken for orbital cellulitis. In insidious cases, such as the sclerosing subtype of inflammation, the chronic painless course may prompt concerns about a neoplastic infiltration such as lymphoma. Orbital inflammation can be divided into nonspecific, idiopathic, and other specific diagnoses. The differential diagnosis includes allergic, infectious (fungal, mycobacterial, and parasitic), and neoplastic (lymphoma or metastatic) disease. Orbital inflammation impacts neurologists and neuro-ophthalmologists because all of the entities can cause afferent dysfunction (decreased vision, abnormal color perception, afferent pupillary defect, and visual field defect) and dysmotility. The pattern of motility deficit may mimic the more familiar cranial nerve palsies. Advances in the diagnosis and management of nonspecific orbital inflammation and the specific entities that cause orbital inflammation are discussed.
