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: We report the case of a 32-year-old woman with orbital myositis prior to onset of Behcet's disease (BD). Observations: A 32-year-old woman was referred to our hospital for a complaint of right eyelid swelling, eye pain, and diplopia. Her best-corrected visual acuity was 20/32 on the right, and 20/16 on the left. She was diagnosed as idiopathic orbital inflammation, and received two pulses of intravenous administration of methylprednisolone, followed by oral prednisolone. Three months later, she developed bilateral orbital myositis, and received one more pulse therapy, followed by oral prednisolone and cyclosporin. About one year after the first visit, oral aphthae, genital ulcers, and folliculitis-like skin rash appeared, and the physician diagnosed incomplete type BD. The patient had no uveitis during the disease course. Orbital inflammation and systemic manifestations of BD were ultimately well controlled with small doses of prednisolone. Conclusion and importance: BD may develop during the course of orbital inflammation.
