Is Ophthalmology Consult Needed for Acute Orbital Fractures?
Review in The Laryngoscope, 2025. 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
Failure to recognize concomitant ocular injury in orbital fracture patients is a feared consequence of evaluation in the acute setting. These injuries and their accompanying functional sequelae range in severity, and reconstructive surgeons need to be sensitive to the possibility of major ocular injuries that could potentially have serious outcomes. Indications for specialty-trained ophthalmology evaluation in patients with orbital fractures remain controversial, with some advocating for an immediate and comprehensive evaluation of every patient with an orbital fracture. In many institutions, however, this may be difficult to achieve. Additionally, a reflexive emergent ophthalmologic consultation on every orbital fracture yields many normal examinations and therefore potentially places a great burden on the healthcare system. Current literature was reviewed to guide management of these injuries.
