[Current aspects of eyelid, lacrimal and orbital surgery in childhood].
Review in Der Ophthalmologe : Zeitschrift der Deutschen Ophthalmologischen Gesellschaft, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
backgroundDuring childhood the spectrum of disorders of the eyelid, the lacrimal drainage system and the orbit as well as the subsequent therapeutic management differ from those in adults.
objectivesThis review outlines the clinical picture and treatment of the most common eyelid, lacrimal drainage and orbital diseases in childhood.
methodsThe study comprises a PubMed literature review and own clinical results.
resultsThe most common eyelid disorders in childhood include congenital malpositions, such as ptosis or entropium, which may require fast surgical correction in order to prevent amblyopia. For connatal dacryostenosis a step-by-step therapeutic approach is recommended: (1) conservative treatment using lacrimal sac massage, astringent eye and nose drops, (2) irrigation and probing of the nasolacrimal system and (3) irrigation, probing and silastic tube intubation under general anesthesia. Benign orbital lesions such as dermoid cysts can be removed at pre-school age. Using systemic beta blockers is a novel conservative approach in the treatment of capillary hemangioma, which should precede surgical interventions.
conclusionEyelid and orbital diseases during childhood may require fast surgical intervention to prevent amblyopia. Initial conservative treatment is recommended for connatal dacryostenosis and capillary hemangioma.
