Acute bilateral retrobulbar optic neuritis - An atypical sequela of COVID-19.
Article in Indian journal of ophthalmology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Coronavirus disease 19 (COVID-19) and its ophthalmic manifestations have been variably portrayed. We report a case of a 56-year-old female presenting with sudden-onset vision loss associated with painful extraocular muscle movements in both eyes following COVID-19. Visual acuity was counting fingers close to face. Color perception tested was inaccurate. Ocular examination revealed sluggishly reacting pupils and an otherwise unremarkable fundus picture in both eyes, giving us an impression of bilateral retrobulbar neuritis. Magnetic resonance imaging of the brain and orbit were unremarkable, while blood investigations revealed nothing suggestive. The patient dramatically improved with steroid therapy with full visual recovery and a color vision defect. This presentation of bilateral retrobulbar neuritis as a sequela of COVID-19 is presented for its rarity.
