Fingolimod-associated severe bilateral cystoid macular edema.

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 rare case in which a patient undergoing long-term oral fingolimod treatment for multiple sclerosis (MS) developed late-onset severe bilateral cystoid macular edema (ME) at 3-weeks post cataract surgery. Observations: This study involved a 61-year-old female undergoing long-term oral fingolimod treatment for MS in whom at 4-years post initiation of treatment and the treatment being tapered to a 0.5 mg twice-weekly dose severe bilateral cystoid ME occurred at 3-weeks post cataract surgery. Although the patient was administered the proper treatments for pseudophakic ME, including a 20-mg sub-Tenon's-capsule triamcinolone acetonide injection, it took 13 months for the ME to ultimately resolve with continued oral fingolimod treatment. Conclusions and importance: The findings in this study show that severe bilateral cystoid ME can occur even several years after initiating fingolimod treatment, thus indicating that detailed follow-up is necessary post cataract surgery.
