Clinicopathological analysis of eyelid lesions in Sri Lanka.
Article in International ophthalmology, 2023. 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
purposeWe intended to review the clinical features and histological findings of eyelid lesions in Sri Lanka.
methodsWe conducted a descriptive cross-sectional study to analyse clinicopathological characteristics of eyelid lesions from 2013 to 2017 in the National Eye Hospital of Sri Lanka.
resultsThe age of patients ranged from 3 months to 83 years (mean = 46 ± 21 years). The male-to-female ratio in the sample was 1:1.3. Among 654 histologically confirmed eyelid lesions, the majority (n = 407/654, 62%) were neoplastic lesions including 322 benign, 11 premalignant and 74 malignant neoplasms. The commonest benign tumour was seborrheic keratosis (n = 98), and the commonest non-neoplastic lesion was pyogenic granuloma (n = 64). Seventy-four patients had malignant neoplasia including 24 sebaceous carcinoma, 18 basal cell carcinoma, and 14 squamous cell carcinoma. The most common site of malignant lesions was the upper eyelid. The mean age of patients with malignant eyelid lesions was 64 ± 13 years.
conclusionsNeoplastic lesions outnumbered nonneoplastic lesions, while benign neoplasia was more common than malignant neoplasia. In contrast to the western reports, the commonest malignant neoplasm was sebaceous carcinoma.
