A Case of Impending Central Retinal Vein Occlusion Associated With Antiphospholipid Antibody Syndrome Complicated by Paracentral Acute Intermediate Layer Maculopathy.

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
We report a case of impending central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO) due to antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) complicated by paracentral acute middle maculopathy (PAMM). A 42-year-old man with no medical history acutely presented with blurred vision in his right eye. The best-corrected visual acuity was 20/20 in the right eye, but the Goldman visual field test showed a dark spot over the superior nasal region of the right eye. Fundus examination showed dilated and tortuous retinal veins of the right eye with delayed filling of the inferior retinal veins on fluorescein angiography. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) showed a hyperreflective lesion confined to the inner nuclear layer (INL), consistent with PAMM. After several weeks, his symptoms improved, and the dilated retinal vein and the INL hyperreflexia on OCT were reduced. Multiple positive findings for anti-cardiolipin antibodies were confirmed; therefore, he was diagnosed with APS and treated with aspirin. If the impending CRVO is associated with visual impairment, the complication of PAMM should be considered. In the presence of retinal vasculopathy without atherosclerotic factors, APS should be considered.
