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

Choroidal metastasis is the most common malignant intraocular tumor. Its diagnosis in a patient with known lung cancer is usually easy. However, without any context of already known cancer, further elements are needed to guide the diagnosis. We report the case of a 47-year-old patient with a history of smoking who presented a choroidal metastasis of left lower pulmonary lobe adenocarcinoma discovered on imaging. Imaging techniques, mainly ultrasonography, CT scan, and MRI can help guide the diagnosis of choroidal metastasis even in the absence of a known origin initially.
