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

Eyelash extensions are a common cosmetic procedure. However, they are not without risk. In the perioperative context, this may involve a risk of exposure to keratopathy due to corneal surface vulnerability, physical irritation, and/or inadequate eyelid closure. This case documents a patient with dry eye disease likely secondary to their eyelash extensions who subsequently suffered a corneal abrasion with associated morbidity during a routine anesthetic. Furthermore, this case highlights both the importance of preoperative counseling regarding the removal of eyelash extensions in the elective setting and the need for further strategies to mitigate the risk of corneal injuries in these patients.
