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

backgroundEndogenous endophthalmitis (EE) is a rare but highly destructive eye emergency secondary to systemic infection. Acute endophthalmitis can lead to irreversible vision impairment or even loss of the whole eye, unless being diagnosed and treated promptly. CASE PRESENTATION: This study reports three typical EE cases of endogenous endophthalmitis secondary to different severe systemic diseases. Patients were recruited from the Department of ophthalmology at Zhongnan hospital of Wuhan University and the Department of ophthalmology at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Fujian Medical University. Patients were followed up for up to 60 days. Among these cases, the eye symptoms is the initial manifestations while secondary to original different special systemic conditions. Patients have been treated under dynamically prompt response undergoing systemic treatment and eye treatment at the same time. Best corrected visual acuity were 20/40, 20/60 and light perception during follow-up evaluation.

conclusionsOur observation suggest that prompt identification and treatment could save patients' vision from EE.
