1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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 an incident case of herpetic keratitis in a renal transplant recipient treated for acute renal allograft rejection. A lady in her forties, a renal transplant recipient on treatment for allograft rejection, was referred with mild ocular symptoms in the right eye for two days. On evaluation, she had mild conjunctival hyperemia and extensive herpetic epithelial keratitis involving the limbal and central corneas. The patient healed without sequelae from the antivirals and lubricants. Viral keratitis in immunosuppressed patients should be suspected, even in patients with mild symptoms, as early initiation of treatment can prevent rapid stromal involvement and scarring.
