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

COVID-19 has affected millions of individuals worldwide, yet the neuro-ophthalmic consequences among survivors remain incompletely characterized. In this case report, we describe a case of unilateral optic neuritis identified in the emergency department using ultrasound in a previously healthy young woman shortly after confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection. This case highlights the importance of recognizing neuro-ophthalmic sequelae of COVID-19, outlines the diagnostic evaluation, and demonstrates clinical improvement with corticosteroid therapy.
