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

Purpose: This report presents a case of fungal keratitis treated with penetrating keratoplasty using a cryopreserved cornea, highlighting the successful maintenance of corneal transparency post infection resolution. Observations: A 57-year-old man complaining of pain in the right eye was referred to our hospital. Although diagnosed with fungal keratitis, his corneal scraping indicated the presence of Conclusions and importance: Cryopreserved corneas in penetrating keratoplasty may be viable for maintaining corneal transparency. Additionally, waiting several months for secondary optical corneal transplantation after therapeutic keratoplasty may be a good approach.
