Atypical Central Retinal Artery Occlusion following COVID-19 Infection: A Case Report.
Article in Case reports in ophthalmology. 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
Herein, we report a patient with atypical central retinal artery occlusion (CRAO) following COVID-19 recovery. A 44-year-old male was referred to the emergency room with a history of diplopia and sudden-onset painless visual loss in his left eye. He had a history of 1-week hospitalization for severe COVID-19 infection with pneumonia 3 weeks before, with positive real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction result for severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) in a nasopharyngeal sample. His visual acuity in the left eye was light perception which became no light perception later. Relative afferent pupillary defect was positive in the left eye. He had anterior chamber and anterior vitreous cells due to spillover and white cotton-wool-like patches in the left eye. He was diagnosed with atypical CRAO with uveitis-like features. After 3 weeks, he developed neovascular glaucoma and was treated with panretinal photocoagulation. In conclusion, SARS-CoV-2-induced vasculopathy and hypercoagulopathy conditions may be involved in the progression of CRAO in our patient. COVID-19 could be a considerable predisposing factor for CRAO.
