Vitrectomy using 0.025% povidone-iodine irrigation for treating post-traumatic endophthalmitis due to intraocular foreign bodies: Two case reports.
Article in Frontiers in surgery, 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
Traumatic eye injury-related endophthalmitis is a serious traumatic complication that threatens the vision of many patients worldwide. Herein, we present two cases of traumatic endophthalmitis that underwent 0.025% povidone-iodine treatment and hoped to introduce the bactericidal effect of 0.025% povidone-iodine in balanced salt solution PLUS (0.025% PI-BSS PLUS) and its use in vitrectomy for traumatic endophthalmitis. The 0.025% PI-BSS PLUS solution is bactericidal and nontoxic when used as an irrigation solution in pars plana vitrectomy. The two cases of traumatic endophthalmitis were resolved by pars plana vitrectomy using 0.025% PI-BSS PLUS.
