A very unusual case report: Retinal neovascularization and tractional retinal detachment in a patient with thalassemia minor.

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
Although many ocular pathologies have been reported in patients with thalassemia major, there is a limited number of studies on the ocular findings of patients with thalassemia minor. In this report, thalassemia minor was detected in a 42-year-old male patient who presented with unilateral sudden vision loss and underwent pars plana vitrectomy due to proliferative retinopathy and tractional retinal detachment. One month after the surgery, the best-corrected visual acuity of the eye was 20/100, and the retina was fully reattached under silicone oil. Patients with thalassemia minor should undergo ophthalmologic screening with fundus examination, including the peripheral retina.
