Goldenhar syndrome associated with lacrimal system agenesis: A case report.

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
Purpose: To report a case of lacrimal system agenesis in a patient with Goldenhar syndrome. Observations: A one-month-old female preterm twin with Goldenhar syndrome presented with left upper eyelid coloboma, left central corneal ulcer and inferotemporal epibulbar dermoid. The corneal ulcer was treated and healed to a mild stromal scar. Examination under anesthesia prior to surgery revealed agenesis of the upper and lower eyelids canaliculi. Surgery was performed to correct left upper eyelid coloboma. At a second stage, the epibulbar dermoid was excised and ocular surface was repaired with amniotic membrane graft. Conclusion and importance: Goldenhar syndrome is a rare congenital anomaly arising from the abnormal development of the first and second branchial arches. Anomalies of lacrimal drainage system are uncommon in Goldenhar including nasolacrimal duct obstruction and common canalicular obstruction. Agenesis of the lacrimal system has not been described in cases of Goldenhar syndrome. This case represents a unique and uncommonly seen feature.
