Uveitic Glaucoma and Hansen's disease, A case report.

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
backgroundThe number of Hansen's disease cases in Latin America and the Caribbean has decreased in the last decade; nevertheless, the region is still struggling with infections caused by CASE PRESENTATION: A 62-year-old female was referred with a 2-year history of anterior uveitis of unknown etiology and ocular hypertension. Past medical history and general physical examination were unremarkable. Upon ocular examination, her best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) was 20/25 in the OD and 20/60 in the OS. Tonometry showed intraocular pressures (IOPs) of 29 mmHg and 22 mmHg in her right and left eyes, respectively. The slit-lamp examination showed clinical signs of bilateral granulomatous anterior uveitis and cataracts; gonioscopy revealed open angles with some peripheral anterior synechiae for both eyes. Fundus examination and glaucoma tests revealed mild glaucomatous damage in the right eye. Given the presentation of uveitis, the respective questionnaire was completed by internal medicine and rheumatology. Four months later, after bilateral cataract surgery, the patient developed skin plaques on the face, neck, upper back, and extremities, which were biopsied and identified as positive for tuberculoid leprosy.
