1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

The limbus plays an essential role in maintaining a healthy ocular surface as the stem cells which are responsible for corneal epithelial regeneration are located here. Limbal diseases include neoplastic, degenerative, immunological, infectious and hereditary alterations. In severe cases, limbal stem cell deficiency can result, which is associated with a loss of the ability for regeneration of the corneal epithelium. This may lead to a relevant impairment of visual acuity, depending on the severity. This review article focuses on the diagnostic procedures and treatment options for limbal diseases.
