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
purposeThis study aims to investigate the association between incident central retinal artery occlusion (CRAO) and the subsequent development of cancer.
methodsWe included incident CRAO patients from the 2002-2013 National Health Insurance Service database in South Korea. For the patient cohort, we included patients diagnosed with CRAO from the database, and excluded patients having CRAO or any cancer history during the first 2-year washout period (2002-2003). Then, we defined their 1:4 propensity-score matched non-CRAO subjects as controls, all of whom also had no history of cancer during the washout period. Time-varying covariate Cox regression models were conducted to determine the association of CRAO with cancer. Kaplan-Meier curves with log-rank test were also analyzed.
resultsA total of 9712 patients with CRAO and 38,848 controls were included in the study. CRAO was associated with an increased risk of subsequent cancer (hazard ratio = 1.27; 95% confidence interval, 1.19-1.35). The incidence rate of overall cancer during the study period was 29.12 per 1000 person-years in the CRAO group and 22.77 per 1000 person-years in the control group. Incidence probability of overall cancer was significantly higher among CRAO patients than controls (P < 0.001, log-rank test).
conclusionThe risk of cancer occurrence was increased in patients with CRAO. The results supported that CRAO could be attributed to one of the consequences of arterial thrombosis in cancer patients.
