Risk of Fungal Endophthalmitis Associated with Cataract Surgery: A Mini-Review.
Review in Mycopathologia, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Fungal endophthalmitis is a rare complication after cataract surgery and is associated with significant morbidity including vision loss. The common causative fungal pathogens implicated in fungal endophthalmitis after cataract surgery include Candida species (spp.) and molds such as Aspergillus spp. and Fusarium spp. Early diagnosis and effective antifungal treatment after a high index of clinical suspicion are required to reduce unfavorable complications and to preserve eye function. This review discusses epidemiology, pathogenesis, clinical features, diagnosis, management, and outcomes associated with fungal endophthalmitis after cataract surgery.
