Squamous cell carcinoma of the nasolacrimal duct.
Article in European archives of oto-rhino-laryngology : official journal of the European Federation of Oto-Rhino-Laryngological Societies (EUFOS) : affiliated with the German Society for Oto-Rhino-Laryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 2009. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Tumors originating from the nasolacrimal duct are exceedingly rare. Only a few cases have been reported previously. In advanced cases with extended tumor, differential diagnosis from lacrimal sac tumor is difficult. A 68-year-old Japanese man with intractable dacryocystitis was examined with intranasal endoscopy, computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Squamous cell carcinoma extended from a medial site in the left orbit to the lacrimal orifice. En bloc resection was performed and histopathological examination of the surgical specimen using serial section suggested that the origin of the tumor was located in the nasolacrimal duct. This is the first case in nasolacrimal duct carcinoma whose differential diagnosis of origin has been studied in detail. We showed that pathological study using serial section along the duct provides useful information for diagnosing the tumor origin in addition to that obtained from imaging studies.
