Surgical management of a case of severe leukemic retinopathy.
Article in American journal of ophthalmology case reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Purpose: To present a case of severe leukemic retinopathy requiring surgical rehabilitation. We report four-year follow up and associated post-remission pathology including cystoid macular edema (CME) and retinal ischemia. Observations: This is a case report of a 35-year-old female with acute myelocytic leukemia (AML) who presented with hand motions (HM) vision in both eyes and severe multilayered hemorrhages. She underwent pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) in the left eye and subsequent PPV with internal limiting membrane (ILM) peel in the right eye after autologous bone marrow transplant. After cataract surgery and treatment of CME, visual acuity improved to 20/25 in each eye. Fundus examination and optical coherence tomography (OCT) revealed outer retinal loss outside of the fovea. Conclusions and importance: Surgical intervention can be necessary for visual rehabilitation in some patients with leukemic retinopathy. With improved medical treatment for AML, patients survive longer, making visual rehabilitation more impactful and allowing for a better understanding of the natural history of leukemic retinopathy.
