Unusual Manifestation of Choroidal Metastasis as Late Presentation of Treated Lung Cancer with Floaters.
Article in Middle East African journal of ophthalmology. 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
Metastatic tumors to the choroid are the most common intraocular malignancies. Choroidal metastasis from lung cancer is uncommon. Visual affection or other ocular manifestations as the initial clinical presentation of lung cancer primarily are rare. We report a case of a 71-year-old female patient presented with eye floaters in her right eye. Examination of the right eye visual acuity of 20/30 and fundoscopy revealed a pale choroidal mass superior to optic disc. Ocular coherent tomography showed subretinal fluid at the site of choroidal lesion. The patient is currently treated with radiotherapy and chemotherapy for secondary metastasizes in liver. In spite of floaters is very common nonserious symptoms in ophthalmology practice, but it should be taken seriously to rule out lifesaving condition.
