Penicillium on the Iris! An Unusual Presentation and Cause of Postoperative Anterior Uveitis.
Article in Cureus, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Intraocular fungal infections may not present solely as postoperative anterior uveitis or as a focal anterior segment lesion. The present study describes a 50-year-old woman with well-controlled diabetes who presented with postoperative anterior uveitis three months after uncomplicated cataract surgery. A fuzzy lesion was observed on her iris. The patient underwent an anterior chamber wash and removal of the lesion, followed by intracameral treatment with voriconazole. Culture of the lesion showed that it was a species of Penicillium. The patient has remained stable after treatment. Three aspects of this case were unusual: a fungal lesion of unusual etiology and location, inflammation restricted to the anterior segment despite a fungal background, and the excellent response to treatment with a very favorable outcome.
