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

The authors present a retrospective analysis of three cases of isolated corneal ocular surface squamous neoplasia (C-OSSN) without limbal or conjunctival involvement and review the clinical and anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT) features, along with treatment outcomes. The mean age at presentation was 51 years (range: 32-64 years). The mean tumor diameter was 5 mm (range: 3-6.5 mm). All lesions were placoid with <1 mm thickness. One case had surface keratin. AS-OCT revealed hyperreflective epithelium with abrupt transition in all cases, with mean thickness of 118 μm (range: 60-162 μm). One patient underwent alcohol-assisted keratoepitheliectomy (AKE) and two patients received topical Interferon alpha-2B followed by AKE. Histopathology revealed mild squamous dysplasia in all. No tumor residue or recurrence was noted at a mean follow-up period of 2 years (range: 1-4 years). Isolated C-OSSN is rare. AS-OCT serves as a useful noninvasive tool for supporting the diagnosis of AKE yielding long-term favorable outcomes.
