An unusual coexistence of iris mammillations and optic disc pit with keratoconus: A case report and literature review.

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
Iris mammillations are distinctive uniform nipple-like elevations that cover the anterior surface of the iris partially or totally. It is a rare finding and may coexist with other ocular and extraocular manifestations. Optic nerve pit (ONP), also known as optic disc pit (ODP) or optic hole, is a congenital defect resulting from the failure of fetal fissure closure during the embryonic development. It belongs to the congenital cavitary anomalies spectrum. This case presents a 19-year-old female patient who complained of a gradual decrease in visual acuity in both eyes for 4 years. Slit-lamp and fundus examinations revealed iris mammillations and ODP in the left eye. Corneal topography revealed bilateral keratoconus, which was managed with cross-linking. Iris mammillations and ODP are poorly understood ocular anomalies that are not reported frequently and have never been reported previously both combined with keratoconus. Thus, ophthalmologists should be aware of these conditions, their differential diagnosis, and their possible association with other disorders. This is the first reported case of the combined coexistence of iris mammillations and ODP with keratoconus.
