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

A 70-year-old female patient presented with unilateral blindness of the right eye. As C‑reactive protein (CRP) and the erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) were inconspicuous, a nonarteritic embolic occlusion was assumed; however, after detailed anamnesis large vessel vasculitis (LVV) appeared more likely, which was confirmed by the subsequent imaging diagnostics. This rare case of LVV without an increase in one of the inflammatory parameters CRP or ESR highlights the importance of the medical history and targeted diagnostic procedures.
