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

purposeTo review and summarize the recent progress in the diagnosis and treatment of Coats' disease.

methodsLiterature was collected from Web of Science, Medline and Pubmed, through searching of these keywords: "Coats' disease", "diagnosis" and "treatment".

resultsCoats' disease is characterized by idiopathic leaky retinal vascular telangiectasia and microvascular abnormalities often accompanied by intraretinal or subretinal exudation and retinal detachment. Neovascular glaucoma and phthisis bulbi often occur in advanced cases. Coats' disease has significant diversity in terms of its clinical presentation and morphology. Anti-VEGF therapy combined with laser photocoagulation for early Coats' disease and anti-VEGF therapy combined with minimally invasive vitrectomy for advanced Coats' disease can achieve good efficacy.

conclusionEarly diagnosis and timely treatment based on clinical stage are critical to retaining the patient's visual function. Patients should be aware that close long-term follow-up is necessary.
