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

Ocular burns can have three origins: chemical (by acid or alkaline agents), luminous (by ultraviolet radiation) or thermal. We report the cases of eight patients with ocular burns (3 thermal and 5 chemical). Of these, one patient had a grade 2 burn according to the Dua classification, two had grade 3 damage and one had grade 4. One patient had grade 3 damage in the right eye and grade 4 in the left eye. Anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT) was performed in two patients, showing corneal de-epithelialization, corneal thickening and a hyper-reflective line in the posterior stroma. All patients received medical treatment with topical antibiotics, topical corticosteroids, cycloplegics and wetting agents. Five patients had outpatient treatment with clinical improvement. Three patients were hospitalized, one of whom received an amniotic membrane graft (AMG), one had an AMG followed by a transfixing keratoplasty (TK), and the other is scheduled for a TK. Ocular burns are associated with significant functional risk, warranting prompt and effective management.
