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

The eye, and the cornea in particular, is a common site of chemotherapy induced toxicity, and ocular side effects of both traditional and novel agents have been reported. Corneal confocal microscopy (CCM) is an in vivo technique that allows for the study of all the corneal layers in an easy, non-invasive and reproducible way via the direct visualization of corneal cell morphologies as well as of sub-basal nerve plexus. Thus, it represents a useful way to identify and monitor chemotherapy induced corneal alterations. This work aims to review the use of CCM in identifying corneal toxicity secondary to chemotherapy treatment, as regards both corneal nerves alterations in the setting of chemotherapy induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) and other corneal structure changes, particularly involving the corneal epithelium.
