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

purposeTo introduce a novel tool to investigate the correlation between concomitant injuries and primary open globe injury (OGI) in the setting of ophthalmic trauma, the "Ophthalmic Trauma Correlation Matrix" (OTCM).

methodsRetrospective cohort review, performed at a tertiary referral eye care center in Eastern Nepal, involving all eyes with OGI meeting the inclusion criteria from 2015-2018. Clinical data including details of primary injury, concurrent injuries, and clinical course were noted from hospital medical records. A correlation matrix chart was devised using matrix correlation and Pearson's correlation coefficient. This chart was then used to evaluate the association of the various injuries in the setting of OGI.

resultsA total of 109 eyes with OGI were included. Majority of the eyes (78, 71.6%) had zone I injuries, while most of the eyes (66, 60.6%) had penetrating injury. The most frequent concomitant injuries in all zones of OGI were traumatic lens injury (77, 70.64%), followed by hyphema (48, 44.03%), and vitreous hemorrhage (35, 32.11%). The most common concomitant injury associated with zone I was hyphema (0.873), while traumatic subluxation/cataract (0.894) and vitreous hemorrhage (0.972) were commonly associated with zone II and III, respectively.

conclusionsOTCM could be a useful tool to manage injuries related to the primary ocular injury. This additional information will aid in the prognostication, planning, and management of OGI and potentially prevent repeat surgeries and inadequate treatments.
