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

A 37-year-old man presented with blurring of vision and scotoma in the left eye since last 2 weeks and has a history of poor vision in his right eye since childhood. On examination, his best corrected visual acuity in the right eye was counting finger 1 m and 20/20, N/12 in the left eye. Fundus examination revealed features of Coats disease in the right eye and central serous chorioretinopathy (CSCR) in the left eye. He was given intravitreal triamcinolone acetonide injection in the right eye for reducing subretinal exudation. Simultaneously, focal laser photocoagulation was done to the CSCR leaks in the left eye to prevent the possible worsening of CSCR due to steroid injection in the fellow eye. He underwent cryotherapy to the retinal telangiectatic vessels 3 weeks after steroid injection in the right eye. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) of both eyes showed pachy vessels with a compression of overlying choriocapillaries. After 1 month, the condition of the right eye was unchanged and the CSCR in the left eye was completely resolved with the recovery of near visual acuity.
