Necrotizing eyelid fasciitis - Series of two cases and three eyelids.
Article in IDCases, 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
Necrotising eyelid inflammation, also known as necrotising fasciitis (NF) of the orbit, is a rare but severe soft tissue infection. Prompt and appropriate treatment is crucial, as delayed intervention can result in the bacteria entering the bloodstream. Typical predisposing factors for NF include skin breaks after surgery or trauma, which may be small and overlooked. NF is mainly caused by group A beta-haemolytic streptococci, with significant cases also attributed to Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus.Symptoms include swelling, fever and pallor in the orbital region. Untreated NF can lead to serious complications such as exophthalmos of the orbit or death. The COVID-19 pandemic has led to an increase in the incidence of certain infectious diseases, including streptococcal infections, which can increase the risk of necrotising fasciitis. We present here two report cases of NF that were successfully cured by prompt and aggressive treatment.
