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

backgroundThrombosis of the superior ophthalmic vein (SOV) is rare. It can present with heterogeneous symptoms and requires a careful diagnostic work-up.

methodsThis article reports on a case series of three female patients with thrombosis of the SOV and performed an extensive review of the existing literature in PubMed.

resultsAll three patients showed different leading symptoms but all had a triad of restricted eye motility, exophthalmos and a difference in intraocular pressure with the higher pressure on the side of the protruded eyeball. The pathophysiological background differed in all cases: in the two first cases a pre-existing anticoagulation treatment had been paused shortly before the event. Cofactors were an intraorbital venous outflow obstruction due to an unclear mass in the orbital apex in one case and hypercoagulability due to a malignant disease in the other case. In the third case, there was a cavernous sinus fistula.

conclusionThe diagnosis should be considered not only in patients with dilated vessels of the anterior segment but also in unclear cases of exophthalmos or unilateral elevated intraocular pressure (IOP).
