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
Transient blindness is an extremely rare complication of transurethral resection (TUR) syndrome, which is a well-known complication recognized by urologists and anesthesiologists. TUR syndrome arises from the intravascular absorption of hypotonic fluids during the procedure. In this case report, an 80-year-old male patient experienced transient blindness after undergoing transurethral resection of the prostate. The patient's medical history included hypertension, lung cancer in remission, and paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. The surgery was performed under spinal anesthesia. During the procedure, the patient was found to be blind. The patient's postoperative blood samples revealed elevated plasma glycine levels, which is a known risk factor for TUR syndrome. The patient's visual impairment began to improve without further intervention. This case report highlights the importance of considering the patient's medical history and the potential risks associated with TUR syndrome.
