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
Aim: The purpose of this study is to assess the prevalence of autoimmune-mediated uveitis in relation to other diseases and to describe the clinical patterns of uveitis in a single tertiary hospital in north Jordan. Methods: A cross-sectional retrospective review was performed. We included all patients diagnosed with uveitis in King Abdullah University Hospital (KAUH) ophthalmology clinic and/or patients referred to KAUH rheumatology clinics for evaluation of suspected autoimmune mediated uveitis or for difficult to treat uveitis. This included patients from January 2015 to January 2019. Data collected about patients' age, sex, anatomical location of the disease, etiology, treatment, complications, and outcomes on vision loss were analyzed. Results: A total of 221 patients were included in our study. The mean (±SD) age was 36 (±16) years. A total of 111 patients were female and 110 were male with a ratio of 1 : 1. Noninfectious uveitis was found to be more common than infectious uveitis (95% vs. 5% respectively). Autoimmune-mediated uveitis accounted for 40% of the total cases. The most common causes of autoimmune-mediated uveitis included Behcet's disease ( Conclusion: Autoimmune-mediated uveitis, most commonly associated with Behcet's disease and seronegative spondyloarthropathy, represents a high percentage of uveitis in our area. This implies the need for a high index of suspicion at the time of evaluation.
