Orbital tumors: A retrospective analysis of cases from Iraq and orbital anatomical perspectives.
Article in Surgical neurology international, 2025. 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
Background: With its vital ocular and adnexal structures, the orbit may be affected by a wide array of neoplasms, including primary, secondary, and metastatic neoplasms. These lesions pose significant diagnostic and therapeutic challenges in view of complex orbital anatomy and overlapping clinical presentations. This study aimed to analyze the epidemiology, clinical features, refractive impacts, and management outcomes of orbital tumors, providing insights to optimize diagnosis and treatment strategies. Methods: This study retrospectively analyzes 22 patients who had a presentation of orbital tumors at the Istishari Ophthalmic Eye Hospital between January 2019 and January 2024. Collected data were demographic, clinical, refractive, tumor type, laterality, and management outcome. Advanced imaging studies and histopathological diagnoses confirm the diagnoses. Statistical tests will be applied in assessing the relationship among tumor types, clinical presentations, and refractive changes by means of Analysis of Variance and Chi-square tests. Results: Cavernous hemangioma was the most prevalent tumor (54.5%), followed by adenoid cystic carcinoma and optic nerve meningioma (13.6% and 9.1%, respectively). Proptosis (31.8%) was the predominant symptom. Significant refractive changes were noted across tumor types ( Conclusion: Orbital tumors present diverse clinical and refractive manifestations, necessitating individualized, multidisciplinary approaches for effective management. This study underscores the importance of advanced imaging, tailored surgical strategies, and the integration of minimally invasive techniques. Future multicenter studies are needed to validate these findings and enhance therapeutic outcomes.
