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

Endogenous fungal endophthalmitis (EFE) is a rare but severe ophthalmic emergency that often results in vision-threatening complications and, in extreme cases, can be life-threatening. This report presents a successfully treated case of fungal endophthalmitis, offering insights into clinical management. A 35-year-old female experienced decreased vision in her right eye following fetal reduction surgery. Her best-corrected visual acuity was limited to 10 cm finger counting in the affected eye. Following systemic antifungal therapy combined with vitrectomy, her vision recovered significantly. Through a detailed case analysis and literature review, this study aims to guide clinical practice. In patients with suspected EFE, obtaining early vitreous samples for pathogen identification and initiating timely treatment is critical. Furthermore, early vitrectomy during disease progression, along with an appropriate dosage and duration of antifungal therapy, is essential for restoring visual function and preventing vision loss.
