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 report the case of a Japanese girl with a perforating ocular injury caused by a cat scratch, resulting in Pasteurella multocida-induced endophthalmitis. OBSERVATIONS: A 10-year-old girl presented with a red eye, eye pain, and blurred vision in her right eye immediately after receiving a cat scratch. We performed lensectomy and vitrectomy for endophthalmitis 4 hours after her arrival. After culturing a sample of the vitreous humor, Pasteurella multocida was identified, and the antibiotic was changed to ampicillin. The best-corrected visual acuity of her right eye improved to 20/20 6 months after surgery. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPORTANCE: We present a rare case of Pasteurella multocida-induced endophthalmitis after a cat scratch. Our findings suggest the great importance of identifying the responsible bacterium and using matched antibiotics as soon as possible in such cases to prevent vision loss.
