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

Scleritis is a potentially sight-threatening inflammation with a broad spectrum of anterior and posterior manifestations. In addition to characteristic pain and the risk of scleral thinning, posterior segment involvement is of particular clinical importance. It may cause rapid visual deterioration and present with findings suggestive of other inflammatory, vascular, or neuro-ophthalmic disorders, including venous stasis and neuroretinitis. This case series illustrates anterior and posterior manifestations of scleritis, with particular emphasis on retinal and optic disc involvement. These cases highlight the importance of early anti-inflammatory treatment. Depending on disease severity, systemic corticosteroids and additional immunomodulatory therapy may be required.
