Good Visual Outcome in Post Traumatic Exogenous Endophthalmitis Caused by Trichophyton Species.
Article in Cureus, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Trichophyton species is a dermatophytic fungus commonly found in the skin, nails, hair, and other organic matters such as palm trees and soil. We report a rare case of a 23-year-old man who had a penetrating injury to the eye from the leaves of a palm tree and subsequently developed exogenous endophthalmitis. Culture from the vitreous tap revealed Trichophyton sp as the causative organism. Early vitrectomy and adequate intravitreal injection of amphotericin B resulted in good visual outcomes in an otherwise blinding condition. This is the first reported case of exogenous endophthalmitis secondary to Trichophyton species. Early diagnosis and prompt treatment may help improve visual outcomes.
