Purtscher-like retinopathy with serous macular detachment in a case of acute pancreatitis: A case report.
Article in SAGE open medical case reports, 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
A 28-year-old male hospitalized with a diagnosis of acute pancreatitis presented with sudden onset of blurred vision in both eyes after 48 h of admission. Visual acuity was counting fingers in both eyes. Fundus examination revealed multiple cotton wool spots and intraretinal hemorrhages typical of Purtscher's retinopathy. Optical coherence tomography macula showed serous macular detachment. In 8 weeks follow-up, visual acuity improved to 6/18 oculus dexter (OD) and 6/60 oculus sinister (OS) with resolution of fundus lesions and resorbed subretinal fluid. Purtscher-like retinopathy, though rare should be considered as a differential in all cases with vision loss in acute pancreatitis. This particular case highlights the significance of a thorough examination of the fundus by an ophthalmologist in identifying this infrequent condition that is often overlooked.
