Therapeutic challenges in epidermal inclusion cysts with periocular localization: case reports.
Article in Journal of medicine and life, 2023. 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
Epidermal inclusion cysts in the periocular region are distinctive pathologies exhibiting varied clinical and radiological features, and they should be taken into consideration in the differential diagnosis of cystic lesions near the orbit. This article discusses the clinical and radiological details, along with the surgical results, of two individual cases of epidermal inclusion cysts, with different localization and without any preceding trauma, surgical history, or eyelid inflammation. In the first case, a substantial spherical structure closely connected to the tarsal plate was identified via excisional biopsy, whereas the second case involved a soft, oval tumor located at the outer right orbital corner, as determined clinically and validated through computed tomography. The histological examination showed cysts lined with a keratinized squamous layer, confirming an epidermoid cyst. The surgical removal of the cysts led to esthetically satisfactory outcomes in both cases. The particularity of the presented cases lies in the locations and considerable sizes of the tumors, which have complicated their surgical management. Such instances of epidermal inclusion cysts attached to the tarsus are rarely reported in the literature.
