A Horrific Case of Proptosis: Salvaging Vision in a Pediatric Patient With Rapidly Growing Orbital Rhabdomyosarcoma.
Article in Cureus, 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
We report the case of a four-year-old male who presented with painless right upper eyelid swelling initially treated as a chalazion. The swelling rapidly progressed within two weeks, resulting in non-axial proptosis, thereby restricting ocular motility and causing vision loss. Imaging revealed a large superomedial orbital mass with optic nerve displacement. Histopathology confirmed embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) group III. This report highlights the importance of prompt biopsy, multidisciplinary care, and a multimodal approach in achieving favorable outcomes through early diagnosis and intervention despite rapid tumor growth and optic nerve involvement.
