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: To report a case of Observations: An 84-year-old man presented to the retina clinic with vision loss, pain, and redness in his right eye 28 days after a routine intravitreal injection of faricimab for exudative age-related macular degeneration. The patient had a remote history of cataract surgery, rhegmatogenous retinal detachment repair, and scleral buckle explant for exposure 3 years prior. The patient was found to have endophthalmitis, characterized by a hypopyon and dense vitritis. Broad-spectrum intravitreal antimicrobials and dexamethasone were administered, and a vitreous tap returned sterile. The patient achieved initial quiescence, but he had two recurrences of inflammation in this eye over the next 4.5 months. The patient ultimately underwent pars plana vitrectomy, vitreous biopsy, intraocular lens explant, capsulectomy and repeat intravitreal antimicrobial injections for definitive treatment. Broad-range PCR testing detected Conclusions and importance:
