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

aimTo evaluate the risk factors leading to recurrence in patients with ocular surface squamous neoplasia (OSSN).

methodsThe records of 112 patients with OSSN who underwent treatment and follow-up between February 1999 and August 2018 were reviewed retrospectively.

resultsTotally 67 patients (59.8%) were male and 45 patients (40.2%) were female. The mean age at presentation was 63.7y (range 22-87y). Partial lamellar scleroconjunctivectomy (PLSC) was performed in 105 (93.7%) cases and enucleation was performed in 7 (6.3%) cases due to bulbus invasion as the first step treatment. Treatments used in addition to PLSC included cryotherapy in 78 eyes (74.3%), alcohol epitheliectomy in 57 eyes (54.3%) for presence of corneal involvement, and amniotic membrane transplantation in 17 eyes (16.2%) for ocular surface reconstruction. Topical mitomycin C was used in 10 patients (9.5%) and strontium-90 (Str-90) treatment in 4 (3.8%) patients because surgical margins were tumor positive at the histopathological examination. Postoperative histopathologic diagnoses were squamous cell carcinoma (52 cases), carcinoma

conclusionIn our series, the recurrence rate is 18.8% and overall globe salvage rate is 90.2% for OSSN at relatively short-term follow-up.
