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

Hypercupremia-induced corneal copper deposition secondary to monoclonal gammopathy is rare and shows a characteristic corneal opacity quite different from other causes of hypercupremia, such as Wilson's disease. This report describes a case of corneal copper deposition in a patient with monoclonal gammopathy associated with chronic lymphocytic leukemia. An 84-year-old man with slowly progressive corneal opacity was referred to our hospital. The corneal opacity was present at least five years ago. The patient's best-corrected visual acuity was 20/25 OU (in both eyes) at the initial visit to our hospital. Slit-lamp examination and anterior segment optical coherence tomography revealed bilateral brown-colored opacity localized to deep layers of the central cornea.
