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

Superior ophthalmic vein thrombosis (SOVT) is a rare orbital pathology. It can cause serious complications if it isn´t diagnosed appropriately. It can be secondary to many etiologies, septic or aseptic ones. Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) may disturb the vascular endothelium and promote a prothrombotic state. The presence of which is related to a significantly increased risk of morbidity and mortality. We report the case of a 45-year-old woman who presented a SOVT revealing DKA. Orbit magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed thrombosis of the right superior ophthalmic vein. A treatment based on thrombolytic treatment, associated with antibiotic coverage and a glycemic balance was initiated. This case highlights the importance of considering both infection and diabetes as an important part of the diagnosis and management of SOVT.
