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

purposeThe purpose of this study was to study clinical characteristics, imaging features, and fate of punctate outer retinal toxoplasmosis (PORT). MATERIALS AND

methodsA retrospective, observational, descriptive analysis of PORT lesions presenting as satellite lesions of typical full-thickness necrotizing Toxoplasma retinochoroiditis (TRC) or isolated lesions in immunocompetent cases.

resultsWe analyzed 34 eyes of 34 cases (22 males and 12 females). PORT lesions appeared as deep, dull, yellowish-gray outer retinal lesions, either as satellite lesions to a TRC (

conclusionPORT lesions were observed as multiple punctate lesions, either adjacent to TRC in active or healed phases or as isolated macular punctate toxoplasmosis. Autofluorescence, angiography, and OCT assist in differentiating active from healed lesions. The fate of PORT lesions was healing with granularity, fading, or complete resolution. Some cases recurred with new satellite PORT lesions, whereas others progressed to typical retinochoroiditis or CNVM.
