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

Idiopathic retinal vasculitis is a chronic disease of unknown aetiology which results in ocular morbidity in patients of productive age group. Homocysteine has been implicated in various ocular conditions like age-related macular degeneration, retinal vein occlusions, diabetic retinopathy, and optic nerve diseases. We conducted a study to investigate the relation between serum homocysteine levels and retinal vasculitis at a tertiary care centre in North India. In this case-control study, 32 cases and 64 controls were included and the duration was from June 2017 to March 2019. Serum homocysteine of cases and controls was detected by reflectance photometry using VITROS Chemistry Products HCY 2 (Homocysteine) and the normal range of serum homocysteine as per this method was 6.60 to 14.80 micro mol per litre. Our study found that of the total 32 retinal vasculitis patients, serum homocysteine was raised in 65.62% (21 cases out of 32) and in 70.31% of control group (45 out of 64). Chi square test results showed that there was no significant association found between S. homocysteine levels and Reticular vasculitis (P: 0.64). The two groups were comparable in terms of the age with mean ± SD in cases being 33.47 ± 8.336 years and controls being 35.16 ± 8.568 years with a
