Symmetry of upper eyelid after unilateral blepharoptosis repair with minimally invasive conjoint fascial sheath suspension technique.

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
aimTo investigate the symmetry of upper eyelid in patients with unilateral mild and moderate blepharoptosis who underwent unilateral minimally invasive combined fascia sheath (CFS) suspension.
methodsA retrospective study of patients who underwent unilateral minimally invasive CFS suspension surgery between January 2018 and December 2021. Inclusion criteria included unilateral mild and moderate ptosis, good levator muscle function (>9 mm) and follow-up of at least 6mo. Pre- and post-operative symmetry was graded subjectively for marginal reflex distance 1 (MRD1), tarsal platform show (TPS) and eyebrow fat span (BFS). A
resultsTotally 105 patients (105 eyelids) were included (mild group,
conclusionMinimally invasive CFS suspension is proved to be an effective means of improving the symmetry of unilateral ptosis in terms of MRD1 (all subgroups), POC (all subgroups) and TPS (only mild group), whereas BFS is unaffected.
