[Endogenous endophthalmitis].
Review in Der Ophthalmologe : Zeitschrift der Deutschen Ophthalmologischen Gesellschaft, 2007. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers.
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
Endogenous endophthalmitis is a severe and potentially blinding complication of hematogenous spread of microorganisms. Predisposing factors are intravenous drug abuse, immunosuppression, and prolonged intensive care. Intraocular material needs to be cultured or subjected to PCR to detect the causative microorganisms. In contrast to PCR, culture has the advantage of providing additional information about the resistance of the microorganism. Fungi and bacteria cause endogenous endophthalmitis with the same frequency. Treatment consists in a combination of local and systemic antibiotics or antimycotics, systemic and local corticosteroids, and vitrectomy. The prognosis depends mainly on the initial visual acuity and the pathogen concerned.
