The Association of Same-Day CT Scan with Postoperative Outcomes in Isolated Orbital Fracture Repair.
Article in Facial plastic surgery : FPS, 2024. 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
The potential benefits to surgical outcomes of intraoperative and/or same-day computed tomography (CT) during isolated orbital fracture reconstruction are debatable, and previous research on this topic is limited by small sample size. This retrospective IBM MarketScan Commercial and Medicare Supplemental research database study examined patients undergoing isolated orbital reconstruction from January 1, 2012 to December 31, 2018, to assess whether same-day CT affected postoperative outcomes. The average age of the 5,023 participants was 37 (standard deviation [SD]: 16) years and 63% were males. The data revealed that 16.2% (815 of 5,023) patients underwent a same-day CT. Those who underwent a same-day CT scan exhibited reduced odds of postoperative enophthalmos (adjusted odds ratio [aOR]: 0.269; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.167-0.433) and diplopia (aOR: 0.670; 95% CI: 0.495-906). Interestingly, these patients also displayed a higher rate of revision surgeries (aOR: 2.721; 95% CI: 1.893-3.912). In summary, while same-day CT scans diminish certain postoperative complications of orbital fracture repair, they are also associated with an increased likelihood of subsequent surgical revision.
