Hypocalcemia Induced Optic Neuropathy in a Patient with Undiagnosed Hypocalcemia, Deafness, and Renal Syndrome.
Article in Oman medical journal, 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
Hypocalcemia, deafness, and renal syndrome, also known as Barakat syndrome, is an autosomal dominant genetic condition characterized by hypocalcemia, sensorineural hearing loss, and renal dysplasia. Papilledema, which refers to optic disc swelling due to increased intracranial pressure caused by hypocalcaemia, has been reported in the literature. However, optic disc edema secondary to hypocalcemia-induced optic neuropathy with normal intracranial pressure is rare. In this case report, we present a rare case of hypocalcemia, deafness, and renal syndrome, possibly the first diagnosed based on the presence of hypocalcemia-induced optic disc edema. We suggest that patients with optic disc edema referred for further neurological investigations should have their serum calcium levels analyzed, as early diagnosis and correction of hypocalcemia may improve the signs and symptoms of optic nerve disease.
