Interventions for acute non-arteritic central retinal artery occlusion.
Synthesis in The Cochrane database of systematic reviews, 2002. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 papers, 4 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
backgroundAcute central retinal artery occlusion occurs as a sudden interruption of the blood supply to the retina and results in an almost complete loss of vision in the affected eye. There is no generally agreed treatment regimen although a number of therapeutic interventions have been proposed.
objectivesThe objective of this review is to examine the effects of treatments used for acute non-arteritic central retinal artery occlusion. SEARCH STRATEGY: We searched the Cochrane Controlled Trials Register - CENTRAL/CCTR, which contains the Cochrane Eyes and Vision Group specialised register (Cochrane Library Issue 4, 2001), MEDLINE (1966 to August 2001) and EMBASE (1980 to September 2001). We searched the reference lists of relevant papers for trials. SELECTION CRITERIA: We included only randomised controlled trials in which one treatment aimed to re-establish blood supply to the retina in people with acute central retinal artery occlusion was compared to another treatment. DATA COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS: Two reviewers independently assessed the search results for trials to be included in the review. Discrepancies were resolved by discussion. MAIN
resultsWe found no randomised controlled trials that met our inclusion criteria. REVIEWER'S
conclusionsThere is currently not enough evidence to decide which, if any, interventions for acute non-arteritic central retinal artery occlusion would result in any beneficial or harmful effect. Well-designed randomised controlled trials are needed to establish the most effective treatment.
