Retinal and pre-retinal nodules: A rare manifestation of probable ocular sarcoidosis.
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 5 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
Purpose: To report a case of multiple pre-retinal and intra-retinal lesions in the context of probable sarcoidosis. Observations: A 31-year-old black woman presented with a bilateral panuveitis and multiple pre-retinal and retinal nodules. The workup showed enlarged mediastinal lymph nodes as well as meningitis with an increased cerebrospinal fluid angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) [0.36 UI/L (1.44 × normal)] leading to the diagnosis of probable sarcoidosis. The nodules were hyper-reflective, with posterior shadowing on OCT imaging, and appeared as multiple hypoautofluorescent spots: their characteristics were suggestive of intra and preretinal granulomas. The intraretinal nodules were located in the ganglion cell layer. The posterior segment manifestations were limited to the retina while the choroid appeared uninvolved including on indocyanine green angiograms. The lesions disappeared after corticosteroid treatment. Conclusions and importance: Retinal and pre-retinal nodules have rarely been reported as the sole posterior manifestations of ocular sarcoidosis without choroidal involvement.
