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 evaluate the response to lurbinectedin in a case of macular edema, secondary to central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO). Serial spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) scans were taken in a 70-year-old man with a 24-month history of macular edema secondary to CRVO in the right eye. The patient underwent 5 cycles of chemotherapy with lurbinectedin between October 2018 and May 2019. Central macular thickness (CMT) before and after each chemotherapy cycle was measured together with progression analysis using the CIRRUS Zeiss software. Observations: SD-OCT showed alternating recurrence and resolution of macular edema closely related to the chemotherapy administrations. CMT oscillated between 496 and 284 μm during the follow-up. The macular edema was showed to decrease as soon as 4 days following chemotherapy. Conclusions and importance: Resolution of macular edema associated with CRVO was seen in our patient whilst undergoing chemotherapy with lurbinectedin. Lurbinectedin may play a role in the treatment of macular edema secondary to CRVO and may open new therapeutic indication for this natural marine molecule.
