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

Purpose: To report diffuse orbital inflammation as a manifestation of recurrent inflammation in a patient with Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada (VKH) disease. Observations: 20-year-old African American male, who was previously diagnosed with VKH, presented with right eye pain, swelling, and binocular double vision. He had run out of methotrexate while on steroid taper. Neuroimaging was consistent with diffuse orbital inflammation with myositis. He was started on intravenous steroids and then transitioned to oral steroids, with complete resolution of his symptoms. Conclusions and importance: Central nervous system involvement as a manifestation of VKH has been previously reported, however, there have been no reports of orbital inflammatory syndrome resulting from VKH. Thus, in the appropriate clinical context, orbital signs may be recognized as features of recurrent VKH.
