1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

The coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19) infection may remain asymptomatic or may have several different presentations. Although this disease primarily affects the respiratory system, systemic manifestations affecting the gastrointestinal, cardiovascular, neurological, otorhinolaryngologic, and ophthalmic systems have been reported. Ophthalmic signs may be the first and only sign of COVID-19 infection in children. In the current narrative review, we report the ophthalmic manifestations of COVID-19 in the pediatric age cohort. We performed a comprehensive literature search for the publications on ophthalmic manifestations of COVID-19 in children between 1 March 2020 and 1 January 2022 and compiled the ophthalmic manifestations of this entity among the pediatric population. Conjunctivitis is the most common ophthalmic manifestation in children and can develop at any stage of the disease. Ophthalmic manifestations are seen more commonly in children with severe systemic disease. Long-term and indirect consequence of the COVID-19 disease is the rise of myopia among children. Ophthalmic signs may be the first and only sign of COVID-19 infection in children. Pediatricians, as well as ophthalmologists, must keep observing all children with COVID-19 closely for ophthalmic signs.
