Equine intraocular melanocytic neoplasia.
Article in The Canadian veterinary journal = La revue veterinaire canadienne, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Objective: To describe the clinical appearance, histopathology, and treatment of equine intraocular melanocytic neoplasia in adult horses. Animals and procedure: A retrospective review of medical records was conducted. Data recorded included signalment, ocular examination findings, physical examination findings, therapeutic interventions, and case outcomes. Histopathologic characteristics of enucleated globes were evaluated. A Student's Results: Of the 55 horses included, Arabian was the most common breed (15/55, 27%). Gray was the most common coat color (85%). Physical examination was completed for 75% of horses at time of diagnosis, and of those, 67% had cutaneous melanoma. The interval from diagnosis to last known outcome was not different ( Conclusion: Equine intraocular melanocytic neoplasms are highly associated with cutaneous melanoma and gray coat color, and they are more prevalent than previously published reports suggest. Clinical relevance: A complete ophthalmic examination is indicated for all horses with cutaneous melanoma. Additional research into the timing and rationale for treatment of intraocular melanocytic neoplasia is necessary.
