Ocular siderosis secondary to occult intraocular foreign body causing secondary glaucoma: A case report.
Article in World journal of clinical cases, 2025. 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
backgroundOccult intraocular foreign bodies (IOFBs) can present with atypical symptoms and clinical signs, making diagnosis challenging. We describe a case of an undetected IOFB that was missed on both computed tomography and B-ultrasound, ultimately leading to ocular siderosis and secondary glaucoma. CASE SUMMARY: A 55-year-old male patient presented to our clinic reporting a one-month history of right ocular discomfort and progressive visual deterioration. The patient had previously received a glaucoma diagnosis at a local healthcare facility. His ocular history included blunt trauma to the affected eye five years prior to presentation. Slit-lamp examination revealed corneal and iris lesions in the right eye. Pupillary dilation facilitated the identification of traumatic lens opacities. Diagnostic imaging modalities, including B-scan ultrasonography and computed tomography, showed no evidence of retained intraocular foreign material. The patient subsequently underwent uncomplicated pars plana vitrectomy, during which the occult foreign body was successfully extracted. The procedure was completed without intraoperative or immediate postoperative complications.
conclusionAwareness of IOFBs in individuals who work in high-risk occupations and prompt referral to a retinal surgeon are very important.
