Vertical scan imaging of Anterior Segment Optical Coherence Tomography for descemet anchoring caterpillar seta: A case report and review of literature.
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 2 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 Anterior Segment Optical Coherence Tomography (ASOCT) characteristic and its usefulness in the case of Descemet's membrane (DM) anchoring caterpillar seta, highlighting the importance of vertical scans of ASOCT in detecting and delineating the deep seta and its anterior chamber (AC) penetration. Observation: A 30-year-old male patient presented with complaints of foreign body sensation and watering in the left eye after falling of an insect. Slit-lamp examination showed the presence of two caterpillar hairs, one embedded in the superficial conjunctiva and the second one embedded in the corneal stroma. Conjunctival hair was removed leading to the resolution of symptoms. ASOCT was done for deep corneal hair which showed DM breach and AC protrusion in volume vertical scans. ASOCT scan on follow-up visit showed migration of seta in AC. Deep seta being inert was not removed and the patient was closely followed. Conclusion: and IMPORTANCE: To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case reporting vertical scan imaging of caterpillar seta and showing AC migration of seta on ASOCT.
