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
Significance: Cystoid macular edema (CME) is a common complication of retinitis pigmentosa (RP). However, CME in RP with central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO) is rare. Prompt administration of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF) medication can achieve a satisfactory prognosis. Purpose: This report describes a case of using anti-VEGF medication to treat CME secondary to RP with impending or mild CRVO. Case Report: A 26-year-old female presented for blurred vision in both eyes. Best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) was 20/50 in the right eye and finger-counting in the left eye. According to ophthalmic examinations, CME secondary to RP in the right eye and CME secondary to RP with impending or mild CRVO in her left eye can be diagnosed. Central macular thickness (CMT) was 554 μ m in the right eye and 831 μm in the left eye. Only the left eye was treated with a single intravitreal injection of anti-VEGF medication. One month later, BCVA increased to 20/200 and CMT decreased to 162 μm in the left eye. Interestingly, BCVA in the right eye also had an improvement (20/40) and intraretinal fluid decreased significantly. However, 3 months after injection, these improvements of both eyes were not maintained. Conclusion: This is the second case of RP with CRVO. Intravitreal injection of anti-VEGF medication for addressing CME secondary to RP with CRVO is an effective treatment, but it needs to be reinjected.
