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

Total plasma homocysteine was analysed in 64 cases of retinal vein occlusion (RVO) of which 24 cases of central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO) and 40 cases of branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO) and compared with 45 age and sex matched control. Homocysteine was significantly increased in RVO cases in respect to control (P < 0.001). Analysis also revealed that prevalence of rise of plasma homocysteine was more in cases of CRVO (OR = 13) than that of BRVO (OR = 5.03).
