Docetaxel Retinopathy: A Case Report.
Article in Case reports in ophthalmology. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
backgroundTo report the use of En-face optical coherence tomography (OCT) in a patient treated with docetaxel and tamoxifen for breast cancer for the detection of macular edema (ME) without evidence of leakage on fluorescein angiography (FA). CASE PRESENTATION: A 52-year-old woman treated for breast cancer presented with bilateral visual loss for 2 months. FA showed no significant leakage while spectral-domain OCT scans of both eyes showed foveolar and parafoveolar cystic spaces in a moderately thickened macula. En-face OCT segmented at the inner retina showed the petaloid arrangement of cystic cavities, comparable to a cystoid ME.
conclusionsThe combined use of tamoxifen could have potentiated the toxic effect of docetaxel on the macula. En-face OCT images may reveal a petaloid aspect of the macula due to cysts in the inner retina segmentation, when FA shows no leakage.
