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

Purpose: This report describes a case of Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty (DMEK) graft failure after non-clearing bullae over the area of the orientation mark on the graft. Methods: Case report. Results: The summary of the clinical presentation and workup is described, followed by a brief overview of the DMEK procedure and the gentian violet (GV) ink used to ensure the correct orientation of the DMEK graft. Conclusions: GV has a good safety profile; however, there are rare cases of adverse events. Therefore, alternative approaches should be explored, such as the use of intraoperative optical coherence tomography, reviewing a video recording of the insertion step, adjusting the insertion technique, or using asymmetrical trephine marking on graft edges.
