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

purposeWe describe a case of fish-eye disease (FED) where the clinical features and visual function were investigated using anterior segment optical coherence tomography (OCT) and quantitative measurements. OBSERVATIONS: A 36-year-old Japanese woman with FED presented with bilateral corneal opacities and visual complaints. Both contrast sensitivity and straylight were measured and OCT imaging was performed. Contrast sensitivity and straylight measurements revealed remarkably decreased visual function, despite good visual acuity. OCT demonstrated homogenously hyper-reflective corneal opacification, and a normal total corneal thickness. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPORTANCE: The findings from this case suggest that OCT is useful for analyzing the clinical features of FED, and that the quantitative measurement of visual function furthers the understanding of vision-related symptoms in FED, despite good visual acuity.
