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

Rapidly progressive infectious keratitis may involve the anterior uveal tract and lead to anterior segment inflammation, resulting in severe structural damage of the cornea and potentially causing corneal perforation or endophthalmitis if not promptly treated. We report the case of a 63-year-old male admitted to the Emergency Ophthalmology Department of the University Clinical Center in Katowice, Poland, with a rapidly progressive corneal ulcer of the left eye that had not responded to two weeks of outpatient topical antibiotic therapy. The condition developed after ocular trauma sustained while chopping wood. At presentation, visual acuity was limited to light perception with preserved projection. Multimodal imaging, including slit-lamp examination, anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT), and in vivo confocal microscopy, revealed extensive corneal ulceration with severe stromal destruction, progressive corneal melting, and marked anterior segment inflammation, with an imminent risk of perforation.
