Toxic Keratopathy Induced by Self-Application of Seawater.
Article in Middle East African journal of ophthalmology. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
To report a case of toxic keratopathy secondary to the self-application of seawater eye drops. A 60-year-old male who presented with unexplained unilateral decrease in vision and corneal thinning. Best-corrected visual acuity was 20/400 OD, slit-lamp examination indicated diffuse corneal edema with central thinning, intact sensation, and no vascularization. Laboratory analysis of the eye drops in conjunction with clinical symptoms and findings was consistent with toxic keratopathy. Toxic keratopathy can masquerade as the other forms of keratopathy, and a thorough history taking and laboratory analysis may help elucidate the diagnosis and avoid significant visual morbidity.
