Surgical Management of Peripheral Ulcerative Keratitis: Update on Surgical Techniques and Their Outcome.
Review in Clinical ophthalmology (Auckland, N.Z.), 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
Peripheral ulcerative keratitis (PUK) is an inflammatory, necrotic condition in the peripheral cornea which may end in corneal perforation and visual morbidity if not treated adequately. PUK can occur due to infectious or non-infectious causes. Early cases need medical therapy, both locally and systemically (for some cases). However, advanced PUK may necessitate surgical removal of inciting cause of the pathology and maintaining tectonic stability. Such surgical treatment, including corneal transplantations, may be used in an emergency setting or for visual rehabilitation following preliminary stabilization of the affected cornea. The outcome of these surgeries need to be analyzed to understand the long-term visual prognosis of such eyes. This is an attempt to analyze surgical modalities in the management of PUK and their outcomes.
