Bilateral advancement flaps in the treatment of divided nevus of the eyelid: A retrospective case series.
Article in Medicine, 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
Divided eyelid nevus can affect facial appearance and is difficult to reconstruct after excision. We conducted a retrospective case series (N = 11) and reported the study according to the STROBE guidelines. Eleven patients aged 1-10 years with congenital divided eyelid nevi underwent single-stage excision followed by bilateral advancement flaps and canthal anchoring. Outcomes were evaluated using the Vancouver Scar Scale (VSS) and parent/guardian satisfaction scores. The median VSS score was 1 (interquartile range, 1.5). The mean parent/guardian satisfaction score was 2.45/3, and more than half of patients rated the outcome as "excellent." Healing was generally uncomplicated, and no severe complications occurred. Minor flap necrosis and asymmetry of the palpebral fissure were noted in a few patients, but these improved within 6 months. Overall, the flaps survived well, and eyelid contour was maintained. This modified single-stage approach provided good cosmetic and functional results and may be a safe and effective option for congenital divided eyelid nevi.
