Intrasession test-retest variability of microperimetry in age-related macular degeneration.
Article in Investigative ophthalmology & visual science, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 67 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
purposeTo determine the intrasession test-retest variability of microperimetry in participants with age-related macular degeneration (AMD).
methodsThis study consisted of two separate groups of subjects who had not performed microperimetry previously. In group 1, 30 AMD and 14 control participants performed three microperimetry examinations of a selected eye within one session (test 1 and 2, first pair; test 2 and 3, second pair). Follow-up examination at 6 months was available in 20 AMD participants in group 1, who performed two microperimetry examinations. In group 2, 71 AMD participants performed a short practice examination, then two microperimetry examinations of the right eye (test 1 and 2, first pair) and two of the left eye (test 3 and 4, second pair).
resultsThere was a significant improvement in average point-wise sensitivity (PWS) between the first pair of examination in both groups (P < 0.001), but not in the subsequent pair (P ≥ 0.774). This improvement was not observed at the follow-up visit in the subset of AMD participants in group 1 (P = 0.433). The PWS coefficient of repeatability (CoR) for the second pair of examinations was ± 4.12 dB and ± 4.37 dB for AMD participants for group 1 and 2 respectively.
conclusionsA significant increase in sensitivity between the first and second test, but not in the subsequent tests, was found for participants who had not performed microperimetry previously. Intrasession test-retest variability can therefore be minimized by discarding the first examination to avoid the influence of a learning effect.
