Intracranial migration of intraocular silicone oil following repetitive head trauma.
Article in Radiology case reports, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Intraocular injection of silicone oil as a tamponade agent is a commonly used technique for the treatment of retinal detachment. An incompletely understood phenomenon which can occur after injection is the migration of silicone oil from the vitreous chamber to the intracranial space. Because the appearance of silicone oil can mimic hemorrhage or other pathologies on CT and MRI, careful comparison with prior studies is necessary to avoid unnecessary follow-up studies. We report a case of intracranial migration of intraocular silicone oil following repetitive head trauma.
