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: To report a case of progressive resolution of exudation in a patient affected by perifoveal vascular anomalous complex (PVAC) undergoing topical diclofenac therapy. Observations: A 74-year-old man presented to our department with visual decrease in his right eye lasting six months. Lack of clinical history of arterial hypertension, diabetes, or any other systemic or local vasculopathy, together with retinal multimodal imaging, led to the diagnosis of exudative (e)PVAC. Serial spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) examinations documented a resolution of intraretinal exudation after one-month topical diclofenac therapy. Conclusion and Importance: Initiation of topical diclofenac was associated with resolution of exudation, therefore we hypothesize its potential role in the treatment of ePVAC.
