Long-Term Follow-Up in IgG4-Related Ophthalmic Disease: Serum IgG4 Levels and Their Clinical Relevance.
Article in Journal of personalized medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
(1) Background: To analyze the association between long-term changes in serum IgG4 levels and the clinical course of patients with IgG4-related ophthalmic disease (IgG4-ROD). (2) Methods: Retrospective analysis of 25 patients with IgG4-ROD. (3) Results: Mean age at diagnosis was 60.68 years. Fifty-six percent of patients had bilateral ocular involvement and 32% had systemic associations. The ocular structures involved were the lacrimal gland (76%), orbital soft tissue (36%), extraocular muscle (20%) and infraorbital nerve (20%). According to last follow-up, 9 (36%) patients had normalized IgG4 levels, and 16 (64%) patients had elevated IgG4 levels. Patients with normalized IgG4 levels had better response to initial steroid treatment and attained a significantly lower IgG4 level after treatment (
