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

purposeOrbital teratoma can be removed in order to preserve the bulb. OBSERVATIONS: Case report of a newborn with an orbital tumor. After spontaneous birth, a massive bulbus protrusion on the left side was observed. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) diagnosis showed an intraorbital cystic lesion containing solid parts and displacing the bulbus oculi. Suspecting a teratoma, primarily a cystic puncture was performed on the first day of life. On the 3rd day of life, cystic lesion was completely resected while preserving the bulbus. Histologically a mature cystic teratoma was observed. CONCLUSION AND IMPORTANCE: This case shows how important prenatal diagnostics is in order to plan the necessary birth preparations in advance and that a bulbus-preserving surgery in orbital teratoma is possible. In the absence of yolk-salk tumor it is associated with a good prognosis.
