Purtscher-like retinopathy: Ocular findings in a young woman with chronic kidney disease.
Article in American journal of ophthalmology case reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
purposeTo report a case of Purtscher-like retinopathy treated with systemic steroids in a young woman with chronic kidney disease. OBSERVATIONS: An 18-year-old female with a stage 3b chronic kidney disease presented with bilateral, sudden vision loss during an influenza-like syndrome. Best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) was 20/32 bilaterally and fundoscopic examination revealed cotton-wool spots, Purtscher flecken and intraretinal haemorrhages. Flourescein angiography showed areas of retinal ischemia with vascular leakage and optical coherence tomography showed cystoid macular oedema. The patient completed a short-course treatment with high-dose oral steroids. After 1 week, BCVA was 20/20 bilaterally. After 1 month, fundoscopy and imaging evaluation revealed complete resolution of the retinal injury. This favorable outcome remained stable throughout the 1-year follow-up.
conclusionsAND IMPORTANCE: Purtscher-like retinopathy is a rare, sight-threatening retinal disorder. We described a case of retinal injury presumably related to chronic kidney disease and possibly triggered by an influenza-like syndrome, with a favorable visual recovery.
