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

Retinal vasculitis is a manifestation observed in various forms of uveitis. However, frosted retinal vasculitis, a severe type of retinal vasculitis, is seen in only a limited number of cases, typically associated with severe infections or autoimmune inflammatory conditions. A 65-year-old woman presented to our hospital after noticing a decline in vision in both eyes over the preceding month. Examination revealed vitritis and frosted retinal vasculitis in both eyes. Fluorescein angiography showed marked leakage from the optic disc and retinal vessels. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) revealed a serous retinal detachment at the right fovea. Sarcoidosis and Behçet's disease were ruled out based on blood tests, chest computed tomography (CT) scans, and the absence of extraocular symptoms or findings. There were no abnormalities in the white blood cell count or differential, and no elevation of C-reactive protein (CRP) was observed. While infections caused by various bacteria, viruses, and
