An Atypical Presentation of Relapsing Polychondritis Manifesting As Acute Angle Closure.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Relapsing polychondritis (RPC) is a rare autoimmune disease characterized by recurrent inflammation of cartilaginous and proteoglycan-rich tissues throughout the body. The most commonly affected sites are the auricular pinna, nose, and joints with ocular tissue involvement occurring in up to 50% of patients. The most common ocular manifestations are scleritis, episcleritis, uveitis, and conjunctivitis. Less common ocular issues include keratitis, retinopathy, optic neuropathy, extraocular muscle palsy, and orbital inflammation. Due to the variable clinical presentation and rarity of the disease, the diagnosis of RPC is often delayed or it is misdiagnosed. It is important that ophthalmologists be aware of relapsing polychondritis because ocular symptoms may present as the initial manifestation of the disease.
