Review in Ophthalmology and therapy, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 39 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Ocular surface squamous neoplasia (OSSN) is the most common non-pigmented malignancy of the ocular surface and is represented in a wide range of histologic diagnoses, ranging from mild epithelial dysplasia to invasive squamous carcinoma. Although surgical excision is still the gold standard for OSSN treatment, interest in conservative medical approaches is steadily growing. We have reviewed all of the literature on OSSN published in English in the MEDLINE database up to May 2018, using the keywords "ocular surface squamous neoplasia," "squamous conjunctival carcinoma," and "conjunctival carcinoma in situ," with the aim to provide a comprehensive review of the most recent evidence on this distinct clinical entity.
