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

Central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO) is a significant retinal vascular disease that commonly affects the elderly. Given its rarity among the younger population, its presence should alert clinicians to the possibility of a serious systemic disease. We highlight a rare case of CRVO in a young adult with latent syphilis. Our patient is a 24-year-old male who presented with acute, right eye painless blurring of vision for one day. His right and left visual acuity (VA) were hand movement and 6/6, respectively. Relative afferent pupillary defect (RAPD) was negative. Right fundus examination revealed a hyperemic optic disc with dilated tortuous retinal vessels and multiple flame-shaped, dot, and blot hemorrhages. Laboratory investigations showed a positive
