Neodymium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet laser for minimally invasive management of limbal cysts in allergic conjunctivitis.

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
Allergic conjunctivitis is a widely prevalent disease across the globe. Conjunctival congestion and papillae are the most common ocular manifestations. Limbal involvement in the form of limbitis is common but limbal cysts are very rare. We present a rare case of bilateral conjunctival inclusion cysts secondary to allergic conjunctivitis, successfully managed with neodymium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet (Nd: YAG) laser photodisruption. Unwilling for surgical excision, Nd: YAG laser was considered a minimally invasive, nonsurgical option to rupture the cysts. Over a follow-up period of seven months, all the cysts disappeared and the patient became symptom-free. This modality can be considered a minimally invasive alternative outpatient procedure to surgical excision with good outcomes, especially in cases with multiple small inclusion cysts as in our case.
