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 a 11-year-old girl, who developed a bilateral acute macular neuroretinopathy (AMN) after Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) encephalitis. Observations: Clinical findings and multimodal imaging including fundus photography, near-infrared reflectance, spectral-domain, and enhanced-deep imaging optical coherence tomography (OCT) of a patient with bilateral acute macular neuroretinopathy after Epstein-Barr virus encephalitis. Conclusions and importance: After conducting a literature review in August 2024 using PubMed and Google Scholar, using the keywords "acute macular neuroretinopathy", "AMN", "Epstein-Barr", "Epstein-Barr virus", "EBV", "encephalitis" "Epstein-Barr encephalitis" "EBV encephalitis" we did not find any previous reports of AMN associated with EBV encephalitis, such as in our case. Near infrared imaging and spectral-domain optical coherence tomography are key diagnostic tools for this condition, even when fundoscopic findings are subtle.
