Recurrent fungal endophthalmitis after intravitreal injections of bevacizumab.
Article in American journal of ophthalmology case reports, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
purposeWe intend to describe an uncommon case of recurrent post-cataract fungal endophthalmitis after intravitreal injections of Bevacizumab. OBSERVATIONS: A 73-year-old male, who underwent an uncomplicated cataract surgery 8 months ago, presented to our department with postoperative endophthalmitis 5 days after his fifth intravitreal injection (IVI) of bevacizumab for treatment of cystoid macula edema caused by central retinal venous occlusion 6 months ago. The visual acuity (VA) was 0.1 (20/200). The patient underwent an emergency pars plana vitrectomy. Culture of vitreous tap was negative. Eight weeks later, the patient presented again with recurrent endophthalmitis 2 days after his sixth IVI of bevacizumab. VA was hand motion. The patient was treated with an emergency anterior and posterior segment washout with intracapsular posterior intraocular lens (pIOL) extraction. Culture of pIOL revealed CONCLUSIONS AND IMPORTANCE: we assume that this is a rare case of chronic late-onset post-cataract fungal endophthalmitis, which was activated by repeated intravitreal injections of Bevacizumab.
