Clinical Outcomes and Prognostic Factors in Eyelid Malignancy: A 17-Year Retrospective Analysis of Surgical Management and Reconstruction Techniques.
Article in Korean journal of ophthalmology : KJO, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
purposeTo assess clinical outcomes in patients undergoing surgical excision and eyelid reconstruction for malignancies.
methodsThis 17-year retrospective study (2004-2021) analyzed patients with malignant eyelid tumors who underwent excision and reconstruction. Data on tumor type, size, location, surgical techniques, complications, and prognostic factors for recurrence were evaluated.
resultsA total of 152 patients underwent surgical excision and reconstruction for eyelid malignancies. Basal cell carcinoma was the most common (52.6%), followed by sebaceous cell carcinoma (32.2%). Direct lid closure was the most frequent reconstructive method. Postoperative complications, including ectropion, entropion, and canalicular obstruction, were minimal but required additional surgery in some cases. Recurrence occurred in 13 patients. Lymph node involvement (odds ratio, 21.291; p = 0.004) and positive intraoperative frozen margins (odds ratio, 7.083; p = 0.018) were significant risk factors for local recurrence.
conclusionsSurgical excision and reconstruction are effective treatments for eyelid malignancies, with techniques tailored to tumor size, location, and extension to ensure proper lid function. Lymph node involvement and positive intraoperative frozen margins are key predictors of local recurrence.
