Microperimetry - A New Tool for Assessing Retinal Sensitivity in Macular Diseases.
Article in Journal of clinical and diagnostic research : JCDR, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 22 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
introductionMacular disease is the leading cause of low vision in the Western world. Drusen and pigmentary irregularities are common among the rural Northern Indian population. The disease process leads to loss of central vision, metamorphopsia, macropsia or micropsia and colour vision defect.
aimTo study the retinal sensitivity changes in macular diseases using microperimetry. MATERIALS AND
methodsIt was an observational study, conducted in the Department of Ophthalmology at a rural tertiary care hospital. This study was started from December 2014 until June 2016, in all patients with macular disease above the age of 20 years attending the outpatient department. Microperimetry was done for 84 eyes of 52 patients with macular disease. Mean retinal Sensitivity (MS) and fixation stability was evaluated. The statistical analysis of mean retinal sensitivity, central 2° and 4° fixation was done by calculating the mean and standard deviation using 95% confidence interval.
resultsThe range of age was between 20-81 years. Majority were 32 males (62%) and 20 females (38%). Out of the 84 eyes studied, majority of the macular disease were Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD) (50%). Rest 50% were other macular diseases. The mean retinal sensitivity (dB) shown by microperimetry was 10.83 in AMD, 9.12 in Cystoid Macular Oedema (CME), 10.34 in Epiretinal Membrane (ERM), 10.74 in Pigment Epithelial Detachment (PED), 8.96 in Central Serous Chorioretinopathy (CSCR), 6.43 in macular dystrophy, 7.15 in Lamellar Hole (LMH), 9.8 in Pseudomacular Hole (PMH), 3 in geographic atrophy, 11.1 in macular telangiectasia, 5.6 in Berlin oedema, 12.3 in macular scar and 15.2 in haemorrhage in macula. The study showed 64% of the eyes had stable 2° central fixation, 35% had relatively unstable fixation and 1% had unstable fixation. No significant correlation between retinal sensitivity and retinal thickness in AMD was found.
conclusionThis study shows that microperimetry can be a useful tool for objective evaluation of macular function and progression of the disease.
