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

purpose of reviewThis review aims to provide an update on the clinical presentations and diagnostic findings of drug-induced retinal toxicities. RECENT

findingsSeveral newly FDA-approved medications have been associated with acute retinal toxicities, including brolucizumab, MEK inhibitors, ulixertinib, and FGFR inhibitors. Additionally, as previously believed-to-be well-tolerated medications, such as pentosan sulfate sodium, anti-retroviral therapies, and certain intraoperative ocular medications, are used more frequently or for longer periods of time, associated toxic retinopathies and inflammatory reactions have been reported. Finally, advances in ocular imaging have revealed novel findings in hydroxychloroquine and tamoxifen maculopathies. SUMMARY: Discovery of new medications, increased frequency of use, and longer-term use have led to increased reports of retinal toxicities. Advances in retinal imaging have allowed for earlier detection of subclinical changes associated with these medications, which may help prevent progression of disease. However, more research is needed to determine the point at which vision loss becomes irreversible. Risks and benefits must be assessed prior to discontinuation of the offending, but potentially lifesaving, therapy.
