1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Peribulbar osseous choristoma is a benign, solid nodule; it is a subtype of epibulbar choristomas (belongs to single tissue choristomas), consisting of pure bony tissues. Epibulbar osseous choristoma is the rarest subtype of epibulbar choristomas, with only 65 cases reported since the mid-19th century; so, the rarity of the disease drove me to report it. A 7-year-old female presented with a painless left ocular superotemporal mass, which was present since birth and located under the conjunctiva. The primary diagnoses included lipodermoid and subconjunctival foreign bodies. Ocular interventions included a B-scan, examination under anesthesia and surgical excision of the mass in toto, and the histopathological examination showed that it was an osseous choristoma.
