Retinocytoma Undergoing Retinoblastoma Transformation in an Adult Patient.
Article in Case reports in ophthalmological medicine, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
We report a 46-year-old male patient with retinocytoma who presented at the age of 31 asymptomatically. An intraocular retinal mass was incidentally found in his right eye, when he underwent ophthalmological assessment for refractive surgery. This tumor consisted of a calcified sessile basis partially covered by a pedunculated salmon-pink growth. Initially, the tumor was diagnosed as a retinocytoma with clinical suspicion of malignant transformation into retinoblastoma and treated by four sessions of laser photocoagulation. Six and a half years later, the tumor relapsed, and he was treated with a Ruthenium plaque. Following brachytherapy, he had two episodes of right-sided vitreous hemorrhage that spontaneously cleared up, and the remaining finding in the vitreous cavity was interpreted as asteroid hyalosis. He underwent vitrectomy about five years following brachytherapy. The analysis of the vitreous material revealed the presence of inactive vitreous seeds composed of small round blue cells, compatible with a type 2 regression.
