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
backgroundTreatment of macular edema in uveitis is a key goal of treatment, because this complication remains a potential therapeutic problem for specialists. MATERIAL AND
methodsExamination was carried out in 1-2 groups - 50 persons with uncomplicated recurrent anterior uveitis (AU) in the stage of relapse or remission - and 3-4 groups - 26 persons with recurrent AU complicated by uveitic macular edema (UME) in the stage of relapse or remission of AU. Control group - 27 healthy volunteers. All patients underwent an ophthalmologic examination, using OCT (Spectralis HRA + OCT (Heidelberg Engineering)). The state of cellular and humoral immunity and the expression of activation markers on blood lymphocytes in all patients were assessed. An immunohistocytochemical analysis using monoclonal antibodies (the peroxidase-anti-peroxidase method) was employed to assess the expression of lymphocyte activation markers. The monoclonal antibody panel (MCAP) for immunophenotyping included antibodies reacting with CD5, CD54 (ICAM-1), CD25, and CD95 (FAS) antigens. Immunophenotyping was performed using immunohistochemistry.
resultsIn the patients with AU + UME, the parameters of the T-cell link of the immune response were increased and the parameters of humoral immunity (CD19, IgA, IgG) were decreased in comparison with the uncomplicated AU patients. The absolute and relative numbers of natural killer cells in the peripheral blood were higher, and the relative numbers of phagocytic neutrophils were lower in the group of anterior uveitis with UME than in uncomplicated AU. The absolute and relative expression levels of ICAM-1 (CD54) and the absolute expression level of CD5 on peripheral blood lymphocytes were increased in relapse at patients with AU + UME compared with uncomplicated AU. The expression levels of CD25 and CD95 were not different in these groups.
conclusionActivation of cellular immunity markers ICAM-1 and CD5 seems to play a role in uveitic macular edema. The expression levels of CD25 and CD95 were not significantly different in these groups.
