Review in Die Ophthalmologie, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundRestoration of eyelid and lacrimal functions are important steps on the way to an intact ocular surface. Clinically available substitute tissues or therapeutic options for eyelid reconstruction and lacrimal gland regeneration often reach their limits in patients with severe diseases of the adnexa oculi. Several approaches in regenerative medicine have been intensively researched and clinically tested in recent years. These range from reconstructive approaches with novel tissue matrices in the field of eyelid surgery to stem cell therapies to regenerate lacrimal gland function. MATERIAL AND
methodsThe state of the art in the current literature is presented and an overview of clinically applied or currently researched tissues for eyelid reconstruction is given. Furthermore, approaches in stem cell therapy of the lacrimal gland as well as own results are presented.
resultsAcellular dermis has been successfully used for eyelid reconstruction and represents a viable option in cases of limited availability of autologous tissue. In vitro grown cellular constructs or tissues with genetically modified cells have already been successfully applied in dermatology for the treatment of burns or severe genodermatoses. First studies on stem cell therapy for severe dry eye in Sjögren syndrome showed a safe and effective application of mesenchymal stem cells by injection into the lacrimal gland.
conclusionDue to the limitations of currently available replacement tissues, there is a clinical need for the development of new materials for adnexa oculi reconstruction. Constructs grown in vitro with allogeneic and/or genetically engineered cells are slowly making their way into clinical practice. The efficacy and mode of action of stem cells in severe dry eye are subject matters of current clinical trials.
