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 long term results of two cases treated with topical cyclosporin A 1% for keratitis associated with autoimmune polyglandular syndrome (APS1). OBSERVATIONS: A 25-year-old male and a 17-year-old female were referred from endocrinology as APS1-related autoimmune keratitis. Extended-duration treatment with topical cyclosporin A (CsA) 1% was used for 24 and 18 months, respectively. The first patient had improved best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) from 20/200 and 20/300 in right and left eye to 20/60 in both eyes with markedly improved corneal opacification, while the second patient had improved BCVA from 20/400 and 20/300 in right and left eye to 20/160 in both eyes with persistent central stromal scarring in the right eye and discrete areas of stromal scarring in the left eye. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPORTANCE: Long-term topical CsA 1% offers a valuable option for treatment of APS1-related autoimmune keratitis.
