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

A 58-year-old Afro-Caribbean gentleman with a diagnosis of quiescent systemic lupus erythematosus- (SLE-) related occlusive retinal vasculitis was previously treated with sector pan-retinal photocoagulation in his right eye to control temporal retinal neovascularization. At routine review he was found to have a focal area of subretinal fluid in the temporal macula sparing an ischaemic fovea. Fundus fluorescein angiography and indocyanine green angiography confirmed a branching vascular network (BVN) and terminal polys (i.e., polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy (PCV)). Interestingly, the BVN arose within an old laser scar. To our knowledge this is the first report of PCV in uveitis in an Afro-Caribbean patient and of the lesions arising within a laser scar.
