From A… to… Z(OOR): The Clinical Spectrum of Acute Zonal Occult Outer Retinopathy.
Article in Neuro-ophthalmology (Aeolus Press), 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Acute idiopathic blind spot enlargement (AIBSE) is often caused by Acute Zonal Occult Outer Retinopathy (AZOOR), an outer retinal disease. We report two illustrative cases of AZOOR. The first one was a 21-year-old white female who presented with a scotoma and "shimmering lights" in her left eye. In the second case, a 73-year-old white female was referred for evaluation of a "bitemporal hemianopsia" that started years prior, with no clinical significant photopsias. To our knowledge, case two is the longest documented duration of bilateral, progressive, and chronic, idiopathic, enlargement of the blind spot (CIBSE) documented in the English language ophthalmic literature.
