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
aimTo characterize regional variations in orbital morphology between populations from Southern China and Kashi through three-dimensional computed tomography (3D-CT) measurements, providing anatomical references for clinical practice.
methodsIn this observational cross-sectional study, patients from Zhongshan Ophthalmic Center (Southern China group) and the First People's Hospital of Kashi (Kashi group) were analyzed using Mimics Research software. And 24 orbital parameters were measured, including orbital volume, retroorbital fat, extraocular muscle volume, and various orbital dimensions.
resultsA total of 160 eyes from 80 participants were included, with each center enrolling 40 participants, comprising 20 males and 20 females. The mean age was 42.75±10.83y (range, 25-58) in the Southern China male group, 48.35±13.04y (range, 21-76) in the Southern China female group, 42.40±17.05y (range, 21-76) in the Kashi male group, and 43.05±13.52y (range, 19-74) in the Kashi female group. No significant differences were observed in orbital volume or medial orbital depth (
conclusionThis study reveals distinct regional variations in orbital anatomy between the Southern China and Kashi populations. Participants from Southern China exhibit greater orbital height, orbital index, and exophthalmos, whereas those from Kashi show smaller sphenoid trigone dimensions. These findings provide valuable anatomical references for orbital decompression, fracture reconstruction, and radiological diagnosis.
