Surgical approach to repair of traumatic avulsion and external herniation of the levator palpebrae superioris aponeurosis.
Article in Trauma case reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. 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
This report describes the unusual case and surgical repair of avulsion and external herniation of the levator palpebrae superioris (LPS) aponeurosis and attached muscle fibres associated with superior tarsal plate fracture in an 8-year-old Indigenous girl. To the authors' knowledge, isolated and complete levator palpebrae superioris avulsion with external herniation in trauma is previously unreported. Open injury to LPS requires swift surgical repair, and an anterior ptosis repair approach may facilitate identification of anatomical structures to prevent upper eyelid ptosis. Ultimately, the surgical repair in this case prevented further ptosis surgery and complications in a paediatric patient.
