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

Amiodarone is a class III anti-arrhythmic medication, which may result in possible ocular adverse effects. Amiodarone-associated retinopathy is infrequently perceived but is a potentially vision-threatening condition. We presented two rare cases of amiodarone-associated retinopathy. Their spectrum domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) depicted loss of inner segment/outer segment (IS/OS) and cone outer segment tips (COSTs) lines at the macular region, sparing the external limiting membrane. One case exhibited additional hyperreflective spots at the subretinal layer on SD-OCT. Following the discontinuation of amiodarone and the administration of vitamin C eye drops, a partial recovery in the IS/OS and COST lines was observed.
