Classification, diagnosis, and management of orbital venous-lymphatic malformations: Current state-of-the-art.
Review in Taiwan journal of ophthalmology. 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
Orbital venous-lymphatic malformations (VLMs) are complex vascular anomalies that pose significant challenges to ophthalmologists due to their diverse clinical manifestations and the difficulties inherent in their therapeutic management, particularly given their proximity to critical orbital structures. This narrative review synthesizes the current knowledge on the classification, pathology, molecular mechanisms, imaging characteristics, and therapeutic strategies for VLMs. Historically misclassified as orbital lymphangiomas, VLMs are now recognized as complex malformations comprising interconnected venous and lymphatic components, with the potential for significant complications, including proptosis, visual impairment, and esthetic disturbances. Recent molecular insights have revealed critical pathogenetic mechanisms, particularly mutations in the
