How Much Time Do Focal Treatments for Retinoblastoma Add to Anesthetic Exposure?
Article in Ocular oncology and pathology, 2024. 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: Children with retinoblastoma have anesthesia for exams and treatment, but there is little information about how long treatment interventions (laser, cryotherapy, and intravitreal injections) add to routine exams under anesthesia (EUA). This information would be useful for planning operating room schedules, staff schedules, family expectations, and billing. Methods: A retrospective, single-center, Institutional Review Board (IRB) approved review of anesthesia duration for retinoblastoma children undergoing EUA with laser, cryotherapy, or intravitreal injections performed at MSK between January 2019 and November 2023. Results: Three hundred eight patients had 2,399 EUAs. The average EUA lasted 24.3 min (range 7-77 min) when no interventions were done. Laser photocoagulation added an average of 18.9 min (range 19-77 min), cryotherapy 26.1 min (range 27-75 min), and intravitreal injection 23.5 min (range 10-71 min) to the basic EUA time. Bilateral laser treatments took 8 min longer than unilateral treatments. Conclusion: EUAs for children with retinoblastoma can be performed relatively quickly. Interventions such as laser, cryotherapy, or intravitreal injections roughly double the time under anesthesia but in some cases can take much longer (>1 h).
