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

backgroundVogt-Koyanagi-Harada-like uveitis that presents with severe hyalitis has rarely been reported during anti-programmed death 1 therapy. CASE PRESENTATION: A 70-year-old Chinese man presented with bilateral visual disturbances and vomiting after four cycles of serplulimab, an anti-programmed death 1 antibody, for metastatic lung carcinoma. His best corrected visual acuity was measured at 0.04 in the right eye and 0.02 in the left eye. A slit-lamp examination indicated severe hyalitis, while ocular ultrasound revealed focal serous retinal detachment. Magnetic resonance imaging demonstrated choroidal thickening and cerebrospinal fluid analysis indicated a mild lymphocytic elevation. Retinal fluorescein angiography exhibited focal pinpoint leakage and delayed hyperfluorescence at the optic disc. A diagnosis of Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada-like uveitis secondary to anti-programmed death 1 therapy was established. Following the discontinuation of anti-programmed death 1 treatment and 1-month course of oral prednisone at a dosage of 40 mg per day, the patient's best corrected visual acuity improved to 0.6 in the right eye and 0.4 in the left eye.

conclusionCorticosteroid treatment has proven effective for Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada-like uveitis. Currently, the optimal mode and dosage of corticosteroid therapy have not been clearly defined. Gathering more real-world cases of Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada-like uveitis associated with anti-programmed death 1 antibodies would be beneficial in developing therapeutic guidelines.
