Takayasu Arteritis Presenting as Bilateral Ocular Ischemic Syndrome.
Article in Vascular specialist international, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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 26-year-old female came in with progressive blurring of vision. She had developed memory loss and complained of headache, significant weight loss, and exertional left calf pain after prolonged walking. Pertinent physical findings included light perception on visual acuity examination, and the brachial and radial pulses of both arms were not appreciable. Thoracic and abdominal aortic imaging by computed tomography with contrast revealed narrowing along the thoracic aorta and its branches. Carotid Doppler showed bilaterally thickened walls in the common carotid arteries, with near total occlusion of the left carotid artery. These findings were consistent with bilateral ocular ischemic syndrome in Takayasu arteritis. She was given methylprednisolone 500 mg intravenously daily for 3 days with noted improvement in vision. She was discharged and showed improvement on prednisone 35 mg/day and aspirin 80 mg/day. On follow-up two weeks post-discharge, she reported being able to see silhouettes of persons and objects.
