Clinical characteristics of endogenous Klebsiella pneumoniae endophthalmitis: a 13-year experience.
Article in International ophthalmology, 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
purposeThis study aimed to investigate the clinical features and risk factors for poor visual outcomes in patients with endogenous Klebsiella pneumoniae endophthalmitis (EKE).
methodsThis retrospective interventional case series reviewed the medical records of 17 patients (21 eyes) with EKE from January 2007 to December 2019. Clinical findings, treatments, visual outcomes, and potential prognostic factors were evaluated.
resultsThe mean age of the patients was 55.9 years and 13 patients (76.5%) were males. Diabetes (23.5%) was the most commonly associated systemic disease and liver abscess (70.6%) was the major infection source. Poor initial visual acuity worse than counting fingers was significantly associated with poor final visual outcome (p = 0.003). In this study, adjunctive intravitreal dexamethasone injection and primary vitrectomy were not associated with final visual outcome. Secondary enucleation/evisceration was performed in 14.3%.
conclusionsEKE usually has a poor visual prognosis, and early diagnosis with fair initial visual acuity would be crucial in saving vision.
