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

Purpose: This case report presents an event of retrobulbar hemorrhage (RH) occurring during the initial stage of strabismus surgery after incision of the conjunctiva and Tenon's capsule. Observation: Significant bleeding with subsequent proptosis was observed intraoperatively after the incision of conjunctiva and Tenon's capsule during routine strabismus surgery on the medial rectus muscle in a 5-year-old boy. Intravenous mannitol was administered intraoperatively and surgery was completed as planned. The RH receded within 24 hours without the necessity of orbital decompression. Tenon's capsule prolapse was noted on the first postoperative day and managed with surgical excision under shallow intravenous anesthesia. No damage to the optic nerve or ganglion cells was detected a week after and three months post-surgery. Conclusions and importance: Strabismus surgery bears a risk of RH at every stage of the operation. Careful hemostasis should be provided at each step of the procedure to decrease the risk of such an event. Patients after events of serious intraoperative bleeding should undergo careful post-operative investigation towards coagulation insufficiencies, though no such deficits were identified in the present case.
