Cryptococcal Meningitis Presenting as Endophthalmitis in an Otherwise Asymptomatic Patient.
Article in Journal of vitreoretinal diseases. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Purpose: Methods: A case report is presented. Results: A 66-year-old man on chemotherapy who presented with blurry vision without any extraocular symptoms was diagnosed with cryptococcal endophthalmitis and found to have underlying bloodstream and central nervous system infection on subsequent workup. He was treated with intravenous and intravitreal antifungals and remained systemically well, although a large subretinal mass lesion remained stable at 2-month follow-up. Conclusions: Cryptococcal endophthalmitis may be the initial presentation of disseminated cryptococcal disease. If vitreous cultures grow
