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

backgroundThis study aims to assess pediatric patients with Open Globe Injury (OGI) using the Modified Pediatric Ocular Trauma Score (MPOTS) and to investigate the correlation between Neutrophil-to-Lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and Platelet-to-Lympho-cyte ratio (PLR) parameters with the prognosis determined by MPOTS.

methodsIn this retrospective study, we included pediatric patients with OGI. Recorded data encompassed demographic details, injury type, duration from injury to surgery, complete ophthalmological examinations, initial and final visual acuities, anterior segment and fundus findings, and NLR and PLR values. Patients were categorized into three groups based on their MPOTS scores: Grade I (≤30 points), indicating high risk; Grade II (35-65 points), moderate risk; and Grade III (≥70 points), low risk. Differences between categories were statistically evaluated.

resultsThe study comprised 22 patients. In Category I, the duration from injury to surgery was longer (p=0.018). The most common injury type in this category was globe rupture, occurring in four (50%) patients, with a significant difference noted between the groups (p=0.041). Category I exhibited lower final visual acuity and higher NLR and PLR values compared to the other categories (p<0.050 for all values). Both NLR and PLR demonstrated significant negative correlations with MPOTS (respectively, r=-0.869, p<0.001; r=-0.809, p<0.001).

conclusionThe Modified Pediatric Ocular Trauma Score is an effective and practical method for assessing the prognosis of pediatric patients with Open Globe Injury (OGI). Furthermore, there is evidence indicating a negative correlation between MPOTS and the increase in NLR and PLR values that often follows OGI in this patient population.
