Angioid Streaks in Pseudoxanthoma Elasticum.
Article in Cureus, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Pseudoxanthoma elasticum, or Gronblad-Strandberg syndrome, is an inherited disorder that involves multiple organ systems. The characteristic degeneration and calcification of the elastic fibers caused by this disease were first observed by Ferdinand Jean Darrier in 1896. We report a case of a 27-year-old female who was diagnosed with pseudoxanthoma elasticum based on a skin biopsy prior to her presentation to our ophthalmology outpatient clinic. The past ocular history of the patient was unremarkable for any previous eye complaint or surgery. Her ocular and fundus examination showed pigmented grayish irregular post choroidal crack-like linear dehiscence, forming a network-like pattern, originating at the optic disc and extending radially involving the macular area and the posterior pole in both eyes, representing bilateral angioid streaks. There were no clinical or optical coherent tomographic signs of choroidal neovascularization. Periodic follow up for patients with pseudoxanthoma elasticum is recommended to detect choroidal neovascularization which is a sight-threatening complication. Ophthalmologists should be aware of this association as early recognition and treatment are vital to prevent irreversible visual loss.
