Topical nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs for corneal abrasions in children.
Article in Canadian family physician Medecin de famille canadien, 2012. 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
questionCorneal abrasion from minor injury to the eye is common in both adults and children. Some of my colleagues prescribe topical nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) for analgesia. How safe is this practice? ANSWER: Topical ophthalmic NSAIDs are a short-term effective treatment of the pain associated with corneal abrasions in children. Rare but serious complications have been reported in adult case-study series. Children with corneal abrasions should have follow-up appointments within 24 to 48 hours to assess healing, complications, and side effects of treatment, particularly if they are using topical NSAIDs.
