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
To evaluate the clinical course of orbital complication using a standardised diagnostic pathway. Seventy-three patients with orbital complications underwent a multimodal diagnostic pathway comprising ENT examination, leucocytes/CRP, CT-/MRI-scanning and disease-related data. Twenty-nine patients suffered from rhinosinusitis, 28 from mucoceles, 13 patients from neoplasms and three patients from rheumatic disorders. Clinical examination diagnosed 60 patients with eyelid swelling, 55 patients with ocular pain, 14 patients with diplopia, 4 patients with exophthalmus, 29 patients with visual field defect and 4 patients with visual loss. The diagnostic pathway identified acute rhinosinusitis with a sensitivity/specificity of 90 %/90 %, mucoceles with 79 %/100 %, neoplasms with 100 %/96 % and granulomatosis with polyangiitis with 100 %/100 %, respectively. All patients left the hospital in good general condition and with regular ocular motility; two patients suffered persistent visual loss. The standardised application of a widely accepted diagnostic pathway reliably distinguishes different causes of orbital complication.
