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

Immune reaction is the main cause for graft failure following penetrating keratoplasty. Endothelial immune reaction is the most frequent and most dangerous subtype of rejection because destruction of the graft endothelium can lead to graft failure. "Acute" endothelial rejection is treated by administration of topical and systemic steroids. Intracameral application of corticosteroids by means of an anterior chamber flush is an adjunctive measure that can stop the immune reaction immediately. This measure is thus recommended in all intermediate and severe endothelial rejections.
