Nontraumatic orbital emergencies: a pictorial essay - CT and MRI features for an imaging findings-based approach.
Article in Emergency radiology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Orbital imaging plays a pivotal role in each hospital with an Ophthalmological Emergency Department. Unenhanced orbital computed tomography (CT) usually represents the first-line tool for the assessment of nontraumatic orbital emergencies, thanks to its quick execution, wide availability, high resolution, and availability of multiplanar reformats/reconstructions. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is an essential tool that allows characterization and a better understanding of the anatomical involvement of different disorders due to its excellent contrast resolution and ability to study the visual pathways, even if, unfortunately, it is not always available in the emergency setting. It represents the first imaging choice in pediatric patients, due to the absence of ionizing radiation. When available, CT and MRI are often used together to diagnose, assess the extent, and provide treatment plans for various orbital nontraumatic emergencies, including infective, inflammatory, vascular, and neoplastic diseases. Familiarity with the imaging appearances of these disorders helps the radiologists to establish the correct diagnosis in the emergency setting, which contributes to timely clinical management. This pictorial essay provides a description of the clinical presentation and imaging findings of nontraumatic orbital emergencies.
