Migration of Silicone Oil into the Orbit and Eyelid as a Cyst.
Article in Case reports in ophthalmology. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
A 7-year-old female presented with left upper eyelid swelling following pars plana deep vitrectomy and silicone oil injection 1 year before admission. The left upper eyelid had mechanical ptosis and on palpation there was a lobulated mobile mass in the lateral portion of eyelid. Computed topography scan showed multiple isodense masses with silicone oil in vitreous in the eyelid and orbit; histopathology after excisional biopsy proved the silicone oil migration. Silicone oil migration followed by vitrectomy may be due to leakage from the site of initial wounds or vitrectomy ports. It is important to suspect extraocular silicone oil migration in patients who presented with eyelid mass-like lesions with a history of silicone oil injection following pars plana deep vitrectomy.
