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

purposeNeuroretinitis (NR) is an inflammatory disorder that presents with painless vision loss due to optic disc edema, peripapillary detachment, and macular lipid exudation. We report the first two documented cases of co-infections of pediatric NR due to Bartonella henselae with HSV and Toxocara cati, respectively. OBSERVATIONS: A 10-year-old female with acute right-sided facial droop, right eye pain, and acute visual loss of the right eye is diagnosed with co-infection of Bartonella and HSV retinitis and is successfully treated with acyclovir, rifampin, and doxycycline. A 13-year-old female with progressive visual loss of the left eye is diagnosed with co-infection of Bartonella and ocular toxocariasis and is successfully treated with doxycycline, rifampin, prednisolone, and albendazole. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPORTANCE: Early recognition and multi-modal treatment is necessary to prevent delayed diagnosis and treat the underlying NR causes for optimal visual recovery.
