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

Epidemiological studies demonstrate a prevalence of Adamantiades-Behçets disease (MAB) in the range of 0.12-420 per 100,000 inhabitants with the highest rates in Istanbul, Turkey and the lowest rates in the USA. Ophthalmological data on the prevalence of ocular involvement are limited for MAB in Germany because most epidemiological studies are based on rheumatological or dermatological data. Berlin is the city with the highest number of non-native German inhabitants and its multiethnic character renders it uniquely appropriate for epidemiological studies on MAB. This article summarizes the most important epidemiological data of 140 patients (63 female and 77 male) with a mean follow-up of 6.4 years (range 0.5-22 years) which we have recently published. The mean age was 23 years at the first manifestation and 32 years when the fully developed disease was recorded. The mean age at onset of ocular involvement was 30 years, 56% of patients developed ocular involvement, which was the first manifestation in 8.6% and the second manifestation in 19.3%. More than half the patients developed ocular involvement. The calculated prevalence of ocular involvement in MAB is 1.77/100,000 inhabitants for the population of Berlin.
