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 present a case of immune checkpoint inhibitor-induced bilateral peripheral ulcerative keratitis that progressed to corneal perforation requiring keratoplasty in both eyes. Observations: We describe the course of a 60-year-old man treated with a combination of Ipilimumab and Nivolumab for metastatic melanoma who presented with foreign body sensation and epiphora in both eyes.Bilateral immune-related peripheral ulcerative keratitis was refractory to topical anti-inflammatory therapy, necessitating repetitive, but unsuccessful cyanoacrylate gluing procedure followed by bilateral lamellar mini-keratoplasty. Conclusions and importance: Combined immune checkpoint inhibition revokes the corneal immune privilege and can lead to auto-immune keratitis with recalcitrant progression to ulceration and perforation.
