Open globe injuries: clinical features and risk factors at a tertiary hospital in Vietnam.
Observational study in Japanese journal of ophthalmology, 2026. 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
purposeTo characterize the clinical features of open globe injury (OGI) in Vietnam and to identify risk factors associated with evisceration STUDY
designProspective observational study
methodsNinety-two patients with OGI who presented to Cho Ray Hospital from August 2024 to May 2025 were prospectively enrolled. The demographic and clinical data were collected at presentation. Multivariable Firth logistic regression was used to identify independent predictors of evisceration.
resultsThe majority of the patients were male, 78.3%, with a mean age of 39.5 years. Road traffic accidents were the most common cause of OGI. In those aged younger than 20 years, explosions were most frequent, whereas domestic incidents were more common in those aged older than 40 years. More than half of the eyes presented with no light perception. Evisceration was performed in 16.3% of the eyes. On multivariable analysis, zone III injury was associated with higher odds of evisceration (aOR 8.46, 95% CI 2.02-51.8), and increasing age was also associated with OGI (aOR per year 1.05, 95% CI 1.01-1.10). Trauma type, mechanism, and eyelid laceration were not associated with OGI.
conclusionOGIs in Vietnam predominantly affect working-age males and are often caused by high-energy trauma such as motorcycle crashes and workplace incidents. Whilst the injuries were often severe, most eyes were anatomically salvaged. Zone III injury and older age were associated with increased risk of evisceration. These findings support the need for targeted prevention efforts and improved access to specialized eye trauma care in similar settings.
