The Incidence and Risk Factors of Medial and Inferior Orbital Wall Fractures in Korea: A Nationwide Cohort Study.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
purposeWe aimed to investigate orbital wall fracture incidence and risk factors in the general Korean population.
methodThe Korea National Health Insurance Service-National Sample Cohort dataset was analyzed to find subjects with an orbital wall fracture between 2011 and 2015 (based on the diagnosis code) and to identify incident cases involving a preceding disease-free period of 8 years. The incidence of orbital wall fracture in the general population was estimated, and the type of orbital wall fracture was categorized. Sociodemographic risk factors were also examined using Cox regression analysis.
resultsAmong 1,080,309 cohort subjects, 2415 individuals with newly diagnosed orbital wall fractures were identified. The overall incidence of orbital wall fractures was estimated as 46.19 (95% CI: 44.37-48.06) per 100,000 person-years. The incidence was high at 10-29 and 80+ years old and showed a male predominance with an average male-to-female ratio of 3.33. The most common type was isolated inferior orbital wall fracture (59.4%), followed by isolated medial orbital wall fracture (23.7%), combination fracture (15.0%), and naso-orbito-ethmoid fracture (1.5%). Of the fracture patients, 648 subjects (26.8%) underwent orbital wall fracture repair surgeries. Male sex, rural residence, and low income were associated with an increased risk of orbital wall fractures.
conclusionsThe incidence of orbital wall fractures in Korea varied according to age groups and was positively associated with male sex, rural residency, and low economic income. The most common fracture type was an isolated inferior orbital wall fracture.
