[Keratoplasty in children : Indications and results].
Review in Der Ophthalmologe : Zeitschrift der Deutschen Ophthalmologischen Gesellschaft, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Penetrating keratoplasty in children is associated with very specific difficulties for the surgeon as well as for the patient and the parents. Special features are specific pediatric indications, which do not occur in adults, a more difficult examination and treatment adherence depending on the parents. Diseases with a favorable prognosis include keratoconus and herpetic keratitis. Especially sclerocornea and the Peters' anomaly often have a limited prognosis regarding vision and graft survival due to secondary malformations of the eye. In addition, younger age represents a risk factor. This is most likely due to the impaired examination during follow-up and reduced compliance. For successful penetrating keratoplasty in children the timing for the operation, in which the risk for the graft is weighed up against the risk for amblyopia, is crucial.
