Hypertensive Choroidopathy With Bilateral Serous Retinal Detachment as the Presenting Finding in Malignant Hypertension.
Article in Case reports in ophthalmological medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Background: Secondary hypertension, particularly in young patients, can manifest as malignant hypertension with ocular complications. We report a case of hypertensive choroidopathy with serous retinal detachment as the initial presentation of malignant hypertension in a young woman with renal failure secondary to antimalarial treatment. Case Presentation: A 19-year-old woman with a history of renal failure following antimalarial treatment presented with sudden, bilateral vision loss (right eye: 20/200, left eye: 20/40). Fundus examination revealed asymmetrical choroidal involvement with serous retinal detachment, more pronounced in the right eye. Her blood pressure was markedly elevated at 230/130 mmHg. Following blood pressure control, the patient's vision improved to 20/20 in both eyes and the serous retinal detachments resolved completely. Conclusion: This case highlights the importance of considering hypertensive choroidopathy in young patients with secondary hypertension presenting with sudden vision loss. Prompt diagnosis and blood pressure management can lead to complete visual recovery.
