Sero-Positive Isolated Ocular Myasthenia Gravis.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Ocular myasthenia gravis (OMG) is a neuromuscular disease characterized by the production of autoantibodies against post-synaptic proteins at the neuromuscular junction (NMJ). An 18-year-old male who had symptoms of drooping eyelids and double vision was diagnosed with ocular myasthenia gravis on investigations and examinations. Treatment was initiated with a tablet of pyridostigmine 60 mg twice daily per oral for two weeks, followed by three times daily for four weeks. The patient demonstrated significant improvement in ptosis and diplopia. There are still a considerable number of challenges in the diagnosis and treatment of ocular myasthenia gravis, with the typical treatment involving acetylcholinesterase inhibitors and immunosuppressants.
