Coats plus syndrome with new observation of drusenoid retinal pigment epithelial detachments in a teenager.
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 5 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 describe a case of Coats Plus Syndrome (CPS), a vision and life threatening disease belonging to a family of diseases known as the Telomere Biology Disorders. Observations: A 15-year-old girl with a history of small for gestational age, short stature, microcephaly, thinning/greying of scalp hair, skin hyperpigmentation, nail ridging, and multiple pathological fractures presented with bilateral Coats-like retinopathy. We discovered a new observation of multiple peripheral pinpoint retinal pigment epithelial detachments (PEDs). Further genetic testing revealed CTC1 gene mutation and she was diagnosed with Coats plus syndrome with features of dyskeratosis congenita, a telomere biology disorder. Conclusion and importance: Patients with bilateral Coats-like retinopathy and associated systemic features suggestive of CPS should be evaluated through genetic testing to diagnose this disease and treat vision and life threatening manifestations as early as possible. In this report, we also document, for the first time, multiple pinpoint PEDs that could be related to an accelerated aging process with telomere dysfunction.
