A Rare Case of Metastatic Uveal Melanoma Responding to Immunotherapy.
Article in Cureus, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Uveal melanoma (UM) is an intraocular malignancy with poor survival rates due to the propensity for metastatic spread. Although treatment options exist for localized disease, there are fewer definitive guidelines for metastatic UM. Treatment involves a personalized approach that entails patient-specific aspects, including tumor genetics. This case highlights the disease course of a 60-year-old male diagnosed with stage IIB right eye choroidal melanoma. Despite successful therapy for localized UM, he developed widespread metastasis. He received dual immunotherapy and was ultimately maintained on a single-agent regimen. His prognosis has surpassed initial prognosis and survival expectations. This case highlights the use of immunotherapy, both dual and single therapy, to treat this rare malignancy and extend overall survival.
