Relapsing Uveitis due to Human T-lymphotropic Virus Type 1 in a Patient Living With HIV Diagnosed by Metagenomic Deep Sequencing.
Article in Open forum infectious diseases, 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
HIV infection can result in vision loss from different causes, including HIV retinopathy and uveitis secondary to other infections, such as toxoplasmosis and viral retinitis. It is imperative to identify any infectious causes of uveitis to successfully treat the condition and prevent further vision loss. Metagenomic deep sequencing (MDS) is an emerging technology that presents an unbiased approach to the evaluation of clinical syndromes, including uveitis, that have not been diagnosed by pathogen-specific testing. Herein we present a case of a woman living with HIV with 11 years of relapsing bilateral uveitis refractory to systemic corticosteroid therapy who was diagnosed with human T-lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1)-associated uveitis by this technology. We also briefly review the literature of MDS as a diagnostic tool and the epidemiology, pathogenesis, and diagnosis of HTLV-1-associated uveitis.
