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

objectivesTo investigate the clinical results of optic neuritis (ON) patients in a tertiary medical facility in Makkah, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

methodsThe data of patients assessed for ON at Makkah, Saudi Arabia's King Abdullah Medical Center (KAMC), was examined retrospectively.

resultsWe identified 15 patients with ON. The ON was caused by multiple sclerosis (MS) in 73.3% of patients and neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) in 26.7% of patients. The disease was bilateral in 60% of patients and unilateral in 40% of patients. Additionally, 60% of patients had 2 or more episodes of ON, whereas 40% had a single episode. Patients with ON who presented with painful eye movements had a significantly longer disease duration (

conclusionIn the studied population, multiple sclerosis was the most prevalent cause of ON. Women were more likely to have ON. The prognosis for eyesight was substantially connected with the length of ON.
