Erdafitinib-Induced Secondary Maculopathy.
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 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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: This work presents a case of secondary maculopathy associated with the use of erdafitinib (Balversa) for the management of bladder urothelial carcinoma with bony metastasis. Methods: A case report is presented. Results: A 58-year-old Hispanic man presented with blurry vision 3 weeks after starting erdafitinib for the management of bony metastases associated with urothelial carcinoma. A comprehensive evaluation identified multiple areas of subretinal fluid induced by erdafitinib. Throughout treatment, the ocular condition progressed, causing worsening of vision; this led to discontinuation of the drug. Discontinuation was associated with visual and anatomic function improvement. Conclusions: Fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) plays a major role in maintaining mature and premature retinal pigment epithelium cells. Drugs that inhibit the FGFR pathway block the activation of the mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway, leading to synthesis of antiapoptotic proteins. Erdafitinib is associated with ocular toxicity and leads to multifocal pigment epithelial detachments associated with secondary subretinal fluid.
