Anterior segment optical coherence tomography: a tool for infectious keratitis.
Review in Therapeutic advances in ophthalmology. 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
Infectious keratitis (IK) is a serious vision-threatening ophthalmologic emergency that can lead to irreversible complications such as blindness or corneal scarring. IK can be caused by various types of microorganisms, including bacteria, fungi, protozoa, and viruses, which can cause an inflammatory response and penetrate deep into the cornea, leading to perforation in addition to scarring and ulceration. Given the need for thorough and rapid evaluation of patients with IK, effective ophthalmic imaging techniques that provide both quantitative and qualitative information are essential clinician tools. In this narrative review, we outline the benefits of anterior segment optical coherence tomography as a noninvasive, quantitative and qualitative modality for the supportive assessment of IK and for the longitudinal monitoring of corneal abnormalities that may result from infection.
