Electromagnetic Iontophoresis: A Novel Nonsurgical Method for the Treatment of Dense Vitreous and Retinal Hemorrhages.
Article in Case reports in ophthalmology. 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
Introduction: Vitreous, retinal, and suprochoroidal hemorrhages might develop secondary to trauma, retinal tear or detachment, neovascularization due to ischemic retina. If the clearance of retinal and vitreous hemorrhages can be accelerated, more effective treatments can be planned for the underlying pathology. Case Presentations: We present 6 different cases with dense vitreous, preretinal, and subretinal hemorrhages due to Valsalva retinopathy, polypoid choroidal vasculopathy, diabetic retinopathy, neovascular age-related macular degeneration, retinitis pigmentosa with vasculitis, and myopic choroidal neovascularization. To accelerate the clearance of these dense intraocular hemorrhages, a novel nonsurgical method of electromagnetic iontophoresis (MagnoVision™) was used together with some appropriate medications in an outpatient setting without any complications or side effects. In all cases, liquefaction of the intraocular hemorrhage began by 5 days and mostly resolved by 10 days. This nonsurgical rapid clearance allowed us to diagnose and evaluate the underlying retinal and choroidal pathologies earlier and to treat them appropriately as early as possible. Conclusion: Combined use of electromagnetic iontophoresis, subtenon platelet-rich plasma and bevacizumab injection, and oral bromelain can be considered as an effective and safe new treatment method for vitreous and retinal hemorrhages without any need for surgical intervention.
