[Behcet's disease--ophthalmological and general aspects: Part 2: Therapy].
Article in Der Ophthalmologe : Zeitschrift der Deutschen Ophthalmologischen Gesellschaft, 2013. 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
Behcet's disease (also called Admantiades-Behcet syndrome) is a chronic vasculitis. The disease is characterized by exacerbations and remissions of symptoms and organ manifestations and may produce only mild mucocutaneous lesions, whereas ocular lesions can cause blindness. In addition, involvement of the gastrointestinal tract, central nervous system (CNS) and large blood vessels is sometimes life-threatening. Cyclosporin A is the only agent for treatment of ocular lesions registered in Germany; however, the neurotoxicity and nephrotoxicity restrict usage of the drug. In patients suffering from severe uveitis, biologics have been a breakthrough. Interferon (IFN) alpha therapy has shown significant efficacy for intraocular inflammation. Monoclonal antibodies to TNF-alpha and interleukin-1 have been successful in clinical trials and are approved in some countries. This article summarizes the current state of knowledge and emphasizes the important role of the ophthalmologist in the therapy of Behcet's disease.
