Projected prevalences of age-related eye diseases.
Review 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 6 papers.
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 examine projections of age-related eye diseases in the United States for health care planning.
methodsReview of published scientific articles, census data, and unpublished research findings.
resultsThe numbers of cases of all age-related eye diseases are expected to rise in the coming years. These projections are primarily based upon population projections, but give little consideration to changes in health behaviors, racial/ethnic differences, environmental exposures, and changes in health care practices that may influence estimates of costs of actual health care burden.
conclusionsOngoing monitoring of trends in eye disease distribution is needed rather than projections based on old data that may be inadequate for generating reliable prediction models. There is a perpetual need to train new researchers with expertise in epidemiology, as the exigency for current prevalence estimates is crucial to maximize optimal visual health in the population.
