Association between the anatomical location of conjunctivochalasis and subjective symptoms: a multicenter retrospective study.
Article 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 investigate the association between the anatomical location of conjunctivochalasis (CCh) and subjective chief complaints in patients who underwent surgical treatment. STUDY
designRetrospective multicenter study
methodsThis study included 39 eyes of 27 patients undergoing surgery for symptomatic CCh. CCh location was classified as total, nasal, nasal-plus-temporal, or temporal; chief complaints were registered as discomfort/foreign body sensation (FBS), epiphora, or cosmetic complaint. Associations were evaluated by Chi-square test (Cramér's V) and pairwise Fisher's exact tests; age differences by Kruskal-Wallis test.
resultsA significant association was found between CCh location and chief complaint (χ
conclusionIn this surgically selected cohort, subjective symptoms were significantly associated with CCh location. Total CCh was associated with discomfort/FBS, nasal CCh with epiphora, and temporal CCh with cosmetic complaints. The combination of CCh location and patient age may further clarify the clinical presentation: older patients with total CCh sought surgery for mechanical irritation, while younger patients with temporal CCh sought surgery for cosmetic reasons. Recognizing this location- and age-based pattern may help clinicians anticipate the chief complaint and support individualized surgical decision-making.
