Melanocytic Nevus of the Superior Conjunctival Fornix: A Case Report.
Article in Case reports in ophthalmology. 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
Introduction: Conjunctival nevi are benign tumors that are commonly located at the nasal or temporal limbus and rarely in the fornix or tarsus. We report a case of a patient presenting with a solitary compound cystic nevus of the conjunctival fornix in the background of bilateral complexion-associated melanosis. Case Presentation: A 71-year-old African-American female was referred for evaluation of an incidentally noted melanocytic lesion of the right conjunctival fornix. The patient underwent an excisional biopsy, revealing histological features consistent with a compound cystic nevus. Conclusion: This finding is noteworthy due to the rarity of conjunctival nevi originating in the fornix. The case underscores the importance of excisional biopsy in evaluating conjunctival forniceal melanocytic lesions to exclude malignant melanoma, a critical consideration for prognosis.
