Pregabalin as a probable cause of central serous chorioretinopathy: Two case reports.
Article in Turkish journal of physical medicine and rehabilitation, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Pregabalin is commonly used for the treatment of neuropathic pain and is attributed to adverse effects of peripheral vasodilation and peripheral edema. Central serous chorioretinopathy (CSCR) is characterized by choroidal fluid leaks from choroidal vessels under the retina, causing focal retinal detachment with macular vision loss. Herein, we report two cases admitted to our clinic with vision loss while under pregabalin treatment. Upon eye examination, both patients were diagnosed with acute CSCR. Pregabalin treatment was discontinued upon the diagnosis of CSCR. We consider that the use of pregabalin in the presented two cases may be the causal effect of the CSCR diagnosis, as pathophysiology of CSCR is in parallel with the edema-related adverse effects of pregabalin.
