Repeated phototherapeutic keratectomy (PTK) followed by PTK with photorefractive keratectomy for anterior granular corneal dystrophy.
Article in Indian journal of ophthalmology, 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
Two preteen siblings with the anterior-stromal variant of granular corneal dystrophy type 1 underwent multiple phototherapeutic keratectomies (PTK) (due to recurrences of the dystrophy) with progressively increasing hyperopia after each procedure. The last procedure performed was an additional photorefractive keratectomy along with the PTK which led to a decrease in the hyperopia with better refractive outcomes. The addition of mitomycin C may have led to a delay in the recurrence of the dystrophy.
