Open-globe injury caused by barbed fish hook repaired using the back-out method: a report of two cases.

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
Fish hook open-globe injuries (OGIs) are challenging to repair surgically because of the backward-projecting barb near the hook's point that prevents withdrawal of the hook. The most commonly reported ophthalmic surgical technique for removal of barbed hooks is advance-and-cut, wherein the fish hook is pushed through an iatrogenic wound to the exterior of the globe, the barb is cut off, and the shank is backed out of the entry wound. We report 2 cases of zone I OGIs with retained fish hooks successfully repaired using the back-out technique. This strategy involves enlarging the entry wound to allow the entire hook and barb to be backed out, decreasing iatrogenic injuries and eliminating the need for wire cutters.
