Intraocular infiltration of Philadelphia chromosome-positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia diagnosed by polymerase chain reaction from the aqueous humor: A case report.

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
rationaleIntraocular manifestation of hematopoietic tumors is rare and often difficult to distinguish from inflammation. We report a patient with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) who developed intraocular infiltration during the remission period. PATIENT CONCERNS: A 40-year-old man presented with hypopyon in his right eye. Three months later, extensive subretinal infiltration and the elevation of intraocular pressure were observed. Fourteen months prior to this, he had been diagnosed with Philadelphia chromosome-positive ALL, and had received chemotherapy and bone marrow transplantation that resulted in complete remission. DIAGNOSIS: The breakpoint cluster region-Ableson (BCR/ABL) chimera was detected by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) analysis in the patient's aqueous humor. Additionally, a high expression of WT1 (Wilms tumor gene) mRNA in the aqueous humor was discovered. A bone marrow examination yielded a high expression of BCR/ABL fusion gene, and it was determined the patient had experienced a relapse of ALL.
interventionsThe dasatinib was administered orally to the patient. OUTCOMES: The intraocular infiltration disappeared, and intraocular pressure was normalized. LESSONS: Intraocular infiltration in leukemia patients may be an indication of relapse regardless of systemic conditions. Analyzing mRNA expression of BCR/ABL and WT1 of ocular fluid in patients with hypopyon is beneficial in diagnosing topical relapses in leukemia.
