Neuroretinitis and Juxtapapillary Retinochoroiditis as Atypical Presentations of Ocular Toxoplasmosis.
Article in International medical case reports journal, 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
We report three cases of optic nerve toxoplasmosis, an unusual form of ocular toxoplasmosis. In one patient, the optic nerve involvement occurred in an eye with a toxoplasmic chorioretinal scar and choroidal neovascularization in the supramacular area, subretinal fibrosis, and pigment epithelium detachment. The other two patients had papilledema without healed or active chorioretinal lesions, but both had retinal hemorrhage and macular involvement. The diagnosis was based on clinical examination and elevated serum toxoplasma antibodies. Optical coherence tomography helped uncover the structural chorioretinal changes. All patients were treated with a combination of oral antitoxoplasmic drugs, oral prednisone, and intravitreal injection of bevacizumab. Visual acuity improved in all of them. Optic nerve involvement in ocular toxoplasmosis must be considered when papilledema occurs both in isolation and/or in the presence of an active or scarred chorioretinal lesion.
