[Intraocular injections of bevacizumab in rare indications--two cases].
Article in Der Ophthalmologe : Zeitschrift der Deutschen Ophthalmologischen Gesellschaft, 2009. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Intravitreal anti-VEGF injections are currently the most effective treatment option for neovascular age-related macular degeneration. The anti-VEGF treatment of other, more common ocular diseases, such as diabetic retinopathy and vascular occlusions with neovascularization and retinal edema, is currently described in numerous studies and cases. Rare neovascular ocular diseases, such as Eales disease, presumed ocular histoplasmosis syndrome (POHS), retinopathy of prematurity, and idiopathic telangiectasia, may be future areas for anti-VEGF therapy. In our case report we describe intravitreal bevacizumab (Avastin) therapy for central serous chorioretinopathy and for pseudoxanthoma elasticum with angioid streaks and choroidal neovascularization. In both cases the intravitreal injection resulted in morphological and functional rehabilitation.
