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

purposeThe purpose of this study is to analyze the trends and characteristics of ocular trauma research published from 2000 to 2022 to delineate the trajectory of the field's research, provide information about the network of key contributors, and help determine future research strategies and direction.

methodsWeb of Science was queried for published works using a series of keywords relating to ocular trauma: "globe rupture", "ruptured globe", "globe injury", "ocular trauma", "intraocular foreign body", "eye trauma", "eye injury", and "traumatic endophthalmitis". All article information was compiled using the VOSviewer software. Article information analyzed included year of publication, publishing journal, author, institution, country, and keywords/key terms.

resultsA total of 3362 articles were identified. In the time period studied, there is a noticeable trend for an increase in the number of papers pertaining to ocular trauma to be published annually. The journal, Eye published the most, and the United States produced the most articles of any country. Important keywords other than "ocular trauma" included "epidemiology", "management", "children", "vitrectomy" and "endophthalmitis".

conclusionComplications due to ocular trauma are seen worldwide. Many different institutions, journals, and countries have published research on ocular trauma with an increased frequency in recent years. This study provides valuable information on the status of scholarly investigation of ocular trauma in the last 2 decades and sheds light on the trajectory of recent research interest.
