A rare differential for sinusitis and visual loss.
Article in Annals of the Royal College of Surgeons of England, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Erdheim-Chester disease is a rare infiltrative histiocytic disorder with around 800 cases being reported worldwide. Patients most commonly present with skeletal pain, but the condition has been shown to affect multiple other organs. We describe a rare presentation in which the disease infiltrated the sinuses and affected an ex-RAF pilot's vision. After extensive investigation of the elusive diagnosis, repeating of a molecular test using polymerase chain reaction analysis allowed for identification of a mutation (BRAF V600) ultimately leading to the diagnosis of Erdheim-Chester disease.
