Gonococcal Dacryoadenitis: A Case Report.
Article in Case reports in ophthalmology. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Introduction: Case Presentation: This report discusses a 71-year-old male who presented with a painful red left eye. There was notable swelling of the upper eyelid, which was confirmed on CT to be due to lacrimal gland inflammation. Clinical features of dacryoadenitis associated with scleritis were found on ophthalmologic assessment. Conjunctival swabs were sent for culture and returned positive for NG, following which the patient reported a new sexual encounter previously unknown to the treating clinicians. Following IV ceftriaxone and flucloxacillin, topical steroid and chloramphenicol eye drops, the patient saw marked clinical improvement. Conclusion: This case demonstrates that NG may present with unusual features, and clinicians should have a low threshold for conjunctival cultures and promptly explore the sexual and social histories of patients presenting with similar symptomology.
