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

backgroundRemdesivir and GS-441524 have successfully treated cats with feline infectious peritonitis (FIP) but the changes in associated signs of ocular disease are not reported.

objectiveEvaluate the response of FIP-associated signs of ocular disease before and after treatment with remdesivir, GS-441524, or both. ANIMALS: Sixty-one cats diagnosed with FIP by the Internal Medicine services between October 2021 and December 2022 that were treated with injectable, oral, or a combination of anti-viral therapies were reviewed.

methodsObservation study. Signalment, associated signs of ocular disease, treatment, outcome, and follow-up of affected cats were analyzed.

resultsAssociated signs of ocular disease in cats with FIP were diagnosed in 33% (20/61) cats, with a median follow-up of 55 days (IQR 47.3-90.8, range: 16-1071 days) in 11 cats with FIP. Ocular changes were all associated with uveitis, of which 20% (4/20) had anterior uveitis, 25% (5/20) had posterior uveitis, and 55% (11/20) had panuveitis. Ocular disease occurred in effusive (11/20; 55%) and non-effusive (9/20; 45%) FIP and was bilateral in 70% (14/20) cats. All cats started an 84-day course of treatment, with the majority (17/20; 85%) receiving remdesivir in the initial period. Of those, 70% (12/17) received a high dose of 15-20 mg/kg/day. Eleven cats with uveitis had long-term follow-up nine (9/11; 82%) of these had resolution of uveitis. Eighty-seven percent (13/15) of cases with anterior uveitis received topical anti-inflammatory medication. Eighty percent (16/20) of cats survived. CONCLUSION AND CLINICAL IMPORTANCE: Cats with FIP commonly have ocular involvement. Associated uveitis responded to remdesivir or GS-441524 treatment effectively in 82% of cases.
