The application of dexamethasone implants in uveitis treatment.
Review in Frontiers in medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Uveitis refers to a group of ocular inflammatory diseases that can significantly impair vision. Although systemic corticosteroid therapy has shown substantial efficacy in treating uveitis, extensive use of corticosteroids is associated with significant adverse effects. Recently, a biodegradable, sustained-release implant, namely dexamethasone intravitreal implant (Ozurdex), has been reported for treating non-infectious and infectious uveitis. This review aims to summarize the experiences with Ozurdex treatment across various forms of uveitis and to assist readers in understanding the appropriate timing and potential side effects of Ozurdex in uveitis treatment, thereby maximizing patient benefits in uveitis management.
