Natamycin versus natamycin combined with voriconazole in the treatment of fungal keratitis.
Article in Pakistan journal of medical sciences. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Objective: To observe the therapeutic effect of natamycin combined with voriconazole in the treatment of fungal keratitis (FK). Methods: This is a retrospective study. The subjects of this study were 64 patients with FK who were admitted to Baoding No.1 Central Hospital from February 2019 to July 2022. The enrolled patients were divided into control group ( Results: The total efficacy,of the study group was significantly higher than that of the control group. The disappearance time of corneal ulcer, photophobia, foreign body sensation and hypopyon in the study group was shorter than those in the control group. Keratitis severity score and (1,3)-β-D-glucan level in the study group were lower than those in the control group. The corneal ulcer area was narrowed in the study group than that of the control group, and the visual acuity level in the former group was higher than that of the latter group. Besides, there was no significant difference in the frequency of adverse reactions between the two groups. Conclusion: Natamycin combined with voriconazole is safe and effective in the treatment of FK.
