Intravenous rituximab and oral cyclophosphamide for the treatment of cancer‑associated retinopathy in a patient with epithelial ovarian cancer: A case report.
Article in Oncology letters, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Cancer-associated retinopathy (CAR) is a rare paraneoplastic disorder mediated by auto-antibodies that cross-react with retinal antigens leading to gradual visual defects. Early diagnosis and initiation of treatment is crucial to avoid permanent visual loss. Although most patients with CAR respond to intravenous steroids and intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG), there are some cases refractory to the aforementioned treatment strategies. The present study describes a case of CAR in a patient with ovarian cancer that was initially resistant to most treatment regimens (chemotherapy, steroids, IVIG). Treatment with rituximab at 375 mg/m
