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

purposeTo describe the clinical features, histopathology and treatment of ocular surface squamous neoplasia (OSSN) with intraocular tumour extension.

methodsRetrospective study of 23 patients.

resultsThe mean age at presentation of OSSN with intraocular tumour extension was 48 years. Mass (52%) and pain with redness (30%) were the most common presenting complaints. The mean duration of symptoms was 9 months. History of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection was present in eight (35%) patients and one (4%) had xeroderma pigmentosum. History of prior tumour excision was noted in 16 (70%) patients. The mean basal diameter was 17 mm and the mean tumour thickness was 4 mm. Fifteen (65%) tumours had a nodulo-ulcerative tumour pattern at the time of detection of intraocular extension of OSSN. Anterior chamber cells and flare was noted in five (24%) cases and two (9%) patients had secondary glaucoma. Ultrasound biomicroscopy (UBM) (n = 11) revealed blunting of anterior chamber in three (27%) cases and uveal thickening in seven (67%) cases. Over the course of follow-up, extended enucleation (n = 6; 26%) or orbital exenteration (n = 17; 74%) was required for tumour control. At a mean follow-up period of 18 months, locoregional lymph node metastasis was seen in two (9%) patients, and one patient died with systemic metastasis. On histopathology, ciliary body was involved in all (100%) cases.

conclusionMultiple tumour recurrences with history of prior tumour excision and nodulo-ulcerative tumour pattern are commonly associated with intraocular tumour extension of OSSN. UBM is a useful tool to detect intraocular extension of OSSN.
